Registration:
Before you can vote, you need to show up at one of the voter registration sites—in person—with a government-issued photo ID.
Register on opening night at the ArtPrize Opening Night and Registration Fair at Lyon Square. Or any time after that – at one of the voter registration sites. The registration folks will create your account on artprize.org and email your password to you (or create your own account before you come down to register – and choose your own password). Once you register, you’re ready to begin voting.
Open hours at each location vary, so be sure to check them before heading out to register.
All voting is electronic—online, via text message, mobile browser or via iPhone app.
To vote online, by mobile browser or iPhone app, you’ll need your email address and password.
How to Vote:
Online
Anytime after activating your voter status, sign in to your account on artprize.org, search for an artist, and start voting. It’s easy.
Via text message (SMS)
Register your mobile phone number with us. You can do that online at artprize.org or in person when you register to vote. Once your voter status is activated, you’ll receive a text message with a unique code. Text that code back to 878787 to validate your phone, and then you’re ready to vote “up” or “down” using the voting codes displayed near the artwork.
Look for the artist’s voting numbers displayed near the art work.
Send all votes to 878787
Example of a message sent for a vote up: vote25571
