SiTE:LAB to bring latest site-specific art installation to downtown Grand Rapids' vacant JA Building

A Grand Rapids Press article announces that SiTE:LAB will transform a dilapidated downtown Grand Rapids building with its April site-specific, one-night art installation by Kendall College of Art and Design students.

According to excerpts from the story:

Paint is peeling. Graffiti covers the peeling paint. The cement bones of the old Junior Achievement Building are the only things that really remain at 2 E. Fulton St., and Paul Amenta is salivating. The Kendall College of Art and Design professor and founder of SiTE:LAB – a group of local artists and art enthusiasts who create one-night, site-specific art installations – has secured the 25,000-square-foot abandoned building as the next SiTE:LAB location on April 15. SiTE:LAB will take place in conjunction with "Art.Downtown," which is a citywide studio/gallery/shop hop featuring hundreds of all-local artists at multiple downtown locations.
