Taste the Art of Food and Brew

September is the perfect time to explore unique dining experiences brought to you by students at the Secchia Institute for Culinary Arts at Grand Rapids Community College. As you enjoy the creativity that ArtPrize 2023 has to offer, make time for fine dining at the Heritage Restaurant or grab a casual quick bite at Foodology. We’re offering special ArtPrize menu items all month!  And if you're an aspiring chef or want to make your own craft brew, you can learn alongside our expert food and beverage instructors, right here on campus. 

Craving more art? Visit our ArtPrize venue from September 14 to October 1 to see the art on display at the Paul Collins Art Gallery on the fourth floor of Raleigh J. Finkelstein Hall, 143 Bostwick Ave NE. You may be inspired to create your own art, and we can help you through our visual arts, music, and theater classes in our School of Liberal Arts.
