HOLLAND, MI (WHTC) – Two Holland residents are among the 101 Michigan artists who will be featured in this year’s Legacy Trust Award Collection.
The Collection gives artists a chance to chowcase their art for a chance to be sponsored in ArtPrize. In it’s 7th year, Legacy Trust sponsors statewide competition for adult artists with disabilities in an effort to bring their voices and vision to ArtPrize.
Holland residents Amanda Tapley has been chosen for her piece “Lost, Inside & Out,” a collage and Elizabeth Smith is entering her piece “Lakeside Peace,” an acrylic. Four winners will be chosen from all over Michigan by a panel of celebrity judges, two by public vote and one special juried award. These works and all entries can be viewed online.
