Art Prize 2012

Last Friday, I finally got to see Art Prize, and participate in Light the Night Grand Rapids.

Favorites of Fall

Technically fall doesn't start until Saturday, but with the recent weather change, it feels like fall to me. It's my favorite season of the year! Of course every season has their perks, fall is my favorite. Here's why:

Tionana

It's great being back in Grand Rapids! Although I'm still not completely settled into my new house, it's amazing how much progress I've made so far. Oh the things you can do when you don't have the Internet to distract you....

Cabin Fever

I’m not homesick; I’m sick of home. This was my unofficial catchphrase last summer.

The Gift of All: A Community of Givers

I've been in Grand Rapids for about two years, and I'm starting to remember all of the famous names that are usually associated with this area: Meijer, DeVos, Hauenstein, Wege, Cook, etc. I'm working on a paper for my Humanities class on how the philanthropy of Grand Rapids relates to the philanthropy during the Renaissance in Florence, Italy.

Small Changes That Make A Big Difference

I'm currently working on a paper comparing the philanthropy of Grand Rapids to the philanthropy during the Renaissance in Florence, Italy. I haven't found much information yet on Florence, but I've found numerous sites for information about Grand Rapids (one of which is a documentary I will finish watching soon and post about).

About time for a new post right?
