This year, ArtPrize starts on Friday, September 13th. ArtPrize is an annual international art competition and cultural event held in Grand Rapids, Michigan. While you’re in town for the wedding, check out the art throughout the city! A lot of it is walking distance from the Embassy Suites hotel!

Spacious food hall featuring 18 indoor food merchants. Dine-in and carry-out options available from a culinary collective of butchers, bakers, fishmongers, ice cream makers and more!

Fulton Street Market is a Grand Rapids staple and supports hundreds of local businesses throughout the West Michigan community every year.

The Market’s main season (May-October) hosts Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday markets from 8 AM - 2 PM.

Right across the street from our house! The pathway throughout the park is perfect for walking and biking. Very popular disc golf course.

Millennium Park is the largest urban park in West Michigan. Also a perfect spot for walking or biking.

Wonderful activity for a rainy day or if you just enjoy art! Located in the heart of downtown GR.

Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park is a 158-acre botanical garden, art museum, and outdoor sculpture park. Lots to do both indoors and outdoors!
