At the annual meeting, our leaders teach, train, and encourage participants as everyone seeks to identify common needs and find resources to meet them. Attendees find mentors and build friendships that will allow collaboration and new partnerships. Having met and heard Forum leaders teach, participants can determine which of them might be most helpful back in their own countries. These attendees have arranged annually more than 350 local, regional, and national events and initiatives that accelerate the advance of the gospel in their home countries.

ArtPrize 2017
Grand Rapids, Michigan
September 21-23
For more information.
ICT invites you to be part of a group going to the September 2017 event—our 5th year to attend. More information to follow.
ArtPrize has become the most well-attended art festival in the world with the largest cash prizes for winners.
...in 2009, American businessman Rick DeVos announced a bold new "social experiment." He was going to give away the world's largest art prize based solely on a public vote. Any artist in the world could compete; anyone with property in downtown Grand Rapids could turn their space into a venue; and any visitor could vote for their favorite artwork. Event organizers would provide no selection committee or curators. And the largest cash prize in the art world would be awarded entirely by popular vote. As it turned out, that was just the beginning.
