GRAND RAPIDS, MI - St. Cecilia Music Center, the musical hub for ArtPrize 2013, awarded $10,000 in prizes today.
Five $2,000 awards were handed out to artists in five categories, during ArtPrize's Top 10 announcement ceremony at Rosa Parks Circle. Winners were determined by popular vote, notably outside of regular ArtPrize voting.
The five winners are:
Classical: Chris Hansen, "The Grand Rapids Shuffle"
Folk/Country: Karisa Wilson, "The Courage of One"
Pop/Electronic: Amanda Vernon, "Cleaning and Scrubbing"
ArtPrize musical entries were eligible for the $360,000 in total prizes in the competition, although none of them ended up in the Top 10, selected by popular vote. Musical entries are also eligible for the Jury Award in the performance/time-based category.
St. Cecilia first became an ArtPrize exhibition center in 2011, but didn't begin offering the $2,000 prizes until 2012.
