We are so grateful for our neighbors who helped us get boarded up quickly and for the outpouring of support we’ve received from the community after yesterday’s car crash.

All programming is still on this week at Wild Goose, including Monday’s Figure Art (live figure model session), Tuesday’s Portfolio (artist q&a with Cliff Lewis), and Thursday’s Speak Easy (live storytelling on the topic of Stage Fright).

Head to wildgoosecreative.org to register for any of our programs or to make a donation to help us keep ‘em going!

Today we became part of a time-honored Columbus tradition — not exactly the impact we were hoping to have at our new home on Town Street. Everyone is OK, and we are so thankful for the support from everyone in our flock. You can add yours here:

Join us for the July Wild Gallery opening of Junk Drawer, featuring Chad Kessler & Hawke Trackler, Friday 7/10 from 6-9pm during Franklinton Fridays. Junk Drawer draws from DIY culture, skate aesthetics, and street art. This exhibition celebrates the imperfections and the transformative potential of everyday materials. Both Chad and Hawke explore the idea that art can emerge from anywhere and anything. They embrace the idea of beauty in everyday objects and experiences. Junk Drawer invites you to take a closer look at not only the work in the gallery, but also the objects surrounding you every day.
