I'm sure some of you folks have been down to the Grand Rapids Artprize 2010 to see the art. I made a trip down today and, among many others, saw the big penny. The artist (Wander Martich) used over 84,000 overlapping pennies to make the Lincoln Memorial. Very creative! Maybe this will give you an idea what to do with all those pennies? :) The big penny can be found in front of the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum.
