Last weekend, a group of friends and I went on a fun getaway to Grand Rapids, Michigan. Every other year, Grand Rapids hosts an international art show called ArtPrize, where artists showcase their work throughout the city. It's such a cool concept! It was basically a walking museum tour filled with unique paintings, sculptures, and interactive art. We spent the weekend exploring the art, tasting wine, and trying new restaurants.
SATURDAY
- Lunch: We went to Stella's Lounge, a dive restaurant with famous burgers.
- ArtPrize: We explored downtown Grand Rapids, finding all kinds of cool art along the way.
- Dinner: We ate at Grand Rapids Brewing Co., a new brewery downtown. It was seriously delicious.
- Evening: Going out downtown was so fun. We started at J. Gardella's Tavern and watched people attempt karaoke; and ended at BackForty, where there was a live band and cheap drinks.
- Drunchies: Befor heading back to the hotel, we went to HopCat for some late night snacks.
SUNDAY
- Orchard: It was the perfect fall day, so we went to the apple orchard! Hot cider, donuts, and wine tasting - the perfect morning at Robinettes.
- Winery: To break up our drive home, we stopped at Gravity Wines. We tried four wines and enjoyed the beautiful view.
I'm already looking forward to our next girls' getaway!
