SUMMARY:Art Prize
DESCRIPTION:The Basics At ArtPrize\, any artist—from established to emerging—has the chance to show work. Any visitor can vote. The vote will determine who wins the largest art prize in the world. We also took the unusual step to allow people in the city to open a venue and choose the artists to show in their space. There is not one official curator or jury for the competition.  The number of venues is fluid\, so the number of competing artists is fluid. The possibilities are wide open.  We can\'t predict what will happen\, but it should be a lot of fun finding out.  Come and see.  Top prize: $250\,000Dates: September 22 - October 10\, 2010Location: Grand Rapids\, MI USAWinner is determined by public voteAll attendees of the event can voteTop 10 entries will receive a prizeMultiple artists can collaborate on an entryArtists may only submit one entryProperty owners/renters in downtown Grand Rapids can become a venueNumber of artists represented is only limited by number of venues that become available\n______________________________\nThis Event Downloaded From a Helios Calendar Powered Site

SUMMARY:Art Prize
DESCRIPTION:The Basics At ArtPrize\, any artist—from established to emerging—has the chance to show work. Any visitor can vote. The vote will determine who wins the largest art prize in the world. We also took the unusual step to allow people in the city to open a venue and choose the artists to show in their space. There is not one official curator or jury for the competition.  The number of venues is fluid\, so the number of competing artists is fluid. The possibilities are wide open.  We can\'t predict what will happen\, but it should be a lot of fun finding out.  Come and see.  Top prize: $250\,000Dates: September 22 - October 10\, 2010Location: Grand Rapids\, MI USAWinner is determined by public voteAll attendees of the event can voteTop 10 entries will receive a prizeMultiple artists can collaborate on an entryArtists may only submit one entryProperty owners/renters in downtown Grand Rapids can become a venueNumber of artists represented is only limited by number of venues that become available\n______________________________\nThis Event Downloaded From a Helios Calendar Powered Site

SUMMARY:The GLITR Awards 
DESCRIPTION:GLITR Awards To Offer Kudos To Reinvented\, Green CompaniesDo you know a company that\'s thoroughly reinvented itself in response to Michigan\'s ongoing economic transformation? Or a truly green company -- one that has made environmental sustainability a core part of its ongoing functions? Or how about a breakaway company -- a Michigan business that is using innovation to put distance between itself and the competition in hurry? Finally\, do you know a \'Michigan Champion\,\' an individual who truly exemplifies the idea of championing Michigan to the rest of the world? Well\, now they can get the recognition they deserve. The Great Lakes Innovation and Technology Report is establishing new awards -- The GLITR Awards -- to be given away at a special event this (and\, hopefully\, every) fall.For more\, visit http://www.wwj.com/pages/7051016.php. \n______________________________\nThis Event Downloaded From a Helios Calendar Powered Site

SUMMARY:Green Buildings of West Michigan Tour
DESCRIPTION:With over 120 LEED certified buildings in West Michigan\, and that  number continues to grow\, we have the perfect opportunity to prove the  benefits and showcase green building design as a region.  Grand Rapids  is a leader\, fourth in the nation with LEED certified buildings\, and yet  we find very few of those building owners sharing their story in an  organized way to attract tours and visitors and as an economic  development tool for our region.  We are assisting those building owners  to pull their case studies together\, measuring the results of their  green building choices\, and to organize tours of these buildings to  highlight the features.  The diversity in the types of buildings that  have been certified will provide a tour in each of the following market  segments:  office\, manufacturing\, small project\, health care\, education\,  homes\, hospitality\, and non-profit. Tours will be September 10th & 11th 2010 for the building tour event sponsored by the USGBC West Michigan Chapter. Cost of Tours (lunch included):  Friday Only - $60.00; register by August 15th and cost is $50.00Saturday Only - $60.00; register by August 15th and cost is $50.00Both Friday and Saturday - $100.00; register by August 15th and cost is $90.00Add breakfast (a joint breakfast with Greentown participants/keynote address by Mayor George Heartwell) an additional $20.00   Tour Tracks  Green Buildings of West Michigan Book  Register for Tours\n______________________________\nThis Event Downloaded From a Helios Calendar Powered Site
