GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. â ArtPrize 2021 will be here before we know it and artists are already hard at work.
Artist Oaklee Thiele is working in collaboration with DisArt on a special project that will be on display in the center of Grand Rapids at the Grand Rapids Art Museum.
DisArt is an organization that creates public art events that cultivate and communicate a disability culture, and with Thiele they created the My Dearest Friends Project to show the lived experience of disability during the COVID-19 pandemic.
