A One-Of-A-Kind DIY Experience Is Waiting For You In Franklinton 🔨🍸

Sponsored by Decorative Arts Center of Ohio: The 2020 season kicks off January 25th with the exhibition Tell Me a Story Where the Bad Girl Wins: The Life & Art of Barbara Shermund. Starting in 1925, Shermund contributed nine covers and hundreds of cartoons to the New Yorker, and later became a celebrated mainstay at Esquire. Her cartoons had a fierce and feminist electricity rarely seen in that era of male dominated cartooning. The show runs through April 26th and you can find more details right here. 💥💥

Happy Monday! Chelsea here.

Welcome back to another week, my friends. I hope you all had a relaxing weekend and enjoyed the little bit of snow we got! I saw a handful of truly excellent snowmen around town this weekend and it made my heart so happy. Speaking of happy hearts, I have to tell you all about a real game-changer in Columbus. Makers Social is officially open. It's a DIY craft cocktail bar where you can sip on a drink while you handmake something incredible. Honestly, this place is so cool. I can envision many bachelorette parties, work gatherings, and birthday celebrations going down at this fun Franklinton spot. Go create something beautiful, Columbus!

The Best Parks 🌳

You hopefully know how amazing Columbus Metro Parks all are, but the rest of Ohio also does a great job with parks, especially Dayton. National Geographic calls it an "adventure capital" with 16,000 acres of parkland that have "revitalized the city."
