Hello Monday! Chelsea here.

Welcome back to another week, Columbus! One of my favorite things about this city is our public art. For a lot of people, I think an appreciation for public art really increased during the early days of the pandemic. When we were looking for hope and optimism at a very tumultuous time, our local artists stepped up to create incredible works of art. Inspired by the world around them and the events happening at the time, it was an exciting time for everything from murals to sculptures. We are so fortunate to have some truly remarkable works of art around the city, and we've curated our favorite pieces to share with you here today.
