Some of the most creative forces in Grand Rapids are coming together in the name of education.

SiTE:LAB, Grand Rapids Public Museum, and Kendall College of Art and Design are collaborating on a 3D technology project.

SiTE:LAB has made a name for themselves in Grand Rapids through ArtPrize.  Their venues have been both unforgettable and award-winning.  View their 2011 venue and their 2012 venue.

Now SiTE:LAB is joining with Kendall College of Art and Design.  They will scan objects in the collection of Grand Rapids Public Museum, then create 3D prints from the scans.

Phil Renato is the founding Chair of the Metals/Jewelry Design program.  He will teach the course called "Capturing Attention".

More details to come.

What an exciting idea and collaboration from some of the most creative minds in Grand Rapids!
