Here are 9 local artists who are keeping Columbus colorful, plus the ‘(614) Magazine’ guide to Pride

Maybe it’s our guide to this year’s Pride season or the 20 pages highlighting local visual artists, but I think June may be the most colorful issue of (614) Magazine yet.

Columbus has always been a city dedicated to art, from open exhibitions in the Beeler Gallery at the Columbus College of Art & Design to the updated Mona Lisa mural in the Short North to local art vendor booths at the Columbus Art Festival, which kicks off June 12. Art has always been a central through line of our city’s culture.

From murals to sculptures to even stacking colorful Solo cups, each of these artists has intertwined their work with the city, creating unique scenes you can only find here. 

Beyond the art, other featured stories include a rising martial arts star, a legendary Columbus drummer, and an NFL player’s return to the sidelines. And our food and beverage content takes on the summer heat this issue — find out where to get the best soft serve margaritas.
