Hi All ARLIS/NA Members, The Midstates Chapter will be holding its fall meeting in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Oct 2-3. We invite ARLIS/NA members to join us. Our business meeting will be from 1-3 pm on Oct. 2 at the Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park <http://www.meijergardens.org>. After our meeting we'll tour the museum and gardens. Friday evening and Saturday we'll explore ArtPrize <http://www.artprize.org> -- an international art competition with over 1,500 entries spread throughout the city and voted on by the public. ArtPrize is described as "unorthodox, highly disruptive, and undeniably intriguing to the art world and the public alike." This video <https://vimeo.com/107295156> offers a taste of ArtPrize 2014. (ArtPrize 2013 <https://vimeo.com/75037384>, ArtPrize 2012 <https://vimeo.com/49929233>) If you think you'll join us, send me a heads-up so that we can properly welcome you! all best, Rebecca -- Rebecca Price ARLIS/NA Midstates Chapter Chair Architecture, Urban Planning & Visual Resources Librarian Art, Architecture & Engineering Library University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 734.647.5274 http://www.lib.umich.edu/aael/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/membership/join-arlisna Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
