Upgrade your ArtPrize
Anyone attending ArtPrize from Sept 23-Oct 7 can register to vote for free. (The event goes until Oct 10, but voting ends at 11:59PM Oct 7.) When you register to vote, you can upgrade to an experience package:
$15 Experience Package
1 wristband, 1 event guide
$25 Experience Package Plus
1 wristband, 1 event guide, 1 T-shirt
What does the wristband do?
If you plan on coming to ArtPrize for more than a couple hours, the wristband is going to be a great deal. Wristbands get you access to the shuttle, preferred access to Official ArtPrize events (free Sunday brunch, anyone?) and a lot of deals from local merchants, like free coffee, 20% off Segway rentals, happy hour deals and more. Details coming soon.
As of this morning, anyone wearing a wristband can also park at one of five Meijer stores and ride a Rapid bus for free into the ArtPrize district.
There is a limited quantity of wristbands and guides. You can buy them at any voter registration site. Check for individual registration site hours.
Oooh, definitely worth $15 AND the Meijer near my home is listed. Awesome.
Questions, as usual…how do those of us who don’t want to ride a shuttle (we have bikes, we prefer to walk, etc) get a guide? And in our case (& several others’) WHY would we want shuttle passes if the shuttle doesn’t come to our stop? Shouldn’t it be possible to buy 1 guide & multiple wristbands (to conserve paper) for groups or families?
Will it be possible to dowload a pdf of the guide?
What is cost per shuttle ride without wristband?
@ Jane, I noticed some guides for sale at the JW Marriott gift store this morning. I’d guess they are available elsewhere as well.
[...] for getting around this fine city! For a mere $15 you can ride in the comfort and safety of the ArtPrize shuttle. The wristband will also allow you to ride the Rapid free, into Grand Rapids from select Meijer [...]
I just want the wristband
, maybe ill buy the 25 pack and get a shirt with it.
