June 05, 2019 - It’s finally time for the Columbus Arts Festival. As an employee of the Greater Columbus Arts Council I will be at the Festival site all day every day (and then some) June 7-9. So, half of this post will be me sharing some highlights of...
June 12, 2019 - Last weekend was the 58th annual Columbus Arts Festival. I was there all three days and to be honest, I’m pretty beat. But if you’re anything like me, you’re still looking for ways to match all of the fun from the previous weekend....
June 19, 2019 - Hey there — Nichole here. It’s my last week interning at Greater Columbus Arts Council, so I’ll be recommending things to fill up your weekend, and mine, from the ColumbusMakesArt.com event page for the last time. Of course, I’ll continue...

September 04, 2019 - I had this idea that over the holiday weekend I would do some much needed cleaning and organizing in my home. But, when the weekend came that idea did not spark joy. What did make me happy was meeting up with friends and enjoying the...
September 18, 2019 - By the time Friday rolls around I will be on my 12th straight day of work. Granted last weekend was fun “work,” but I am looking forward to a weekend where I have free time to play.
