Growing A Community (Garden)

Saturday May 23th 11:00am or Sunday 24th 2:00pm; Help us garden, and create a place where imagination grows and where a community is cultivated.

Artists are coming together with gardeners and community organizers to cultivate a community (4,352 sq. ft. garden). Together we are investing in the King Lincoln district and much more. We are involving the community with gardening and providing fresh produce to those in the area as well as distributing produce at the 5th Ave food pantry. You don't have to be an artist or gardener to come & help. Just send us an email if you're interested in getting involved. In addition to the movie nights, and plant exchange we had last year we plan on hosting a variety of other community events at the garden. Check back for more about a community cookout or a community art project.

As CCAD exhibitions (Bureau for Open Culture) transitions out of their year long commitment we would like to come alongside the community to continue impacting the neighborhood and building a Green space in Urban Columbus .
