Come celebrate the opening of Voices 2022 on Saturday, September 17, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. Veterans Memorial Park will host the public in an opening weekend event to honor the twenty-two veteran artists shown at ArtPrize, an international art event held in Grand Rapids, Michigan. While at the park, take a moment to sign a yellow ribbon with an inspiring message, like, “Thank you for your service.” The Blue Star Mothers, moms of military service members, will include these notes in care packages to deployed soldiers to remind them of the community back home that supports them.
Experience the veteran art. See the airshow. And enjoy kids’ crafts, food, and more! Join us and honor those who have served in the United States military branches.
