Fall Culture Series Events & Arts Partners

We recently announced a new initiative to heighten the awareness of the arts and cultural offerings in the city – specifically within the young professional (21-45) community – through a quarterly CYP CLUB Culture Series. Through the CYP CLUB Culture Series, we hope to add more arts and culture programs to our calendar, introduce many young professionals to the arts for the first time, provide a partnership link between the CYP CLUB and the local arts community, and transform our city's young professionals into the arts patrons of the future.

Partnering with the CYP CLUB for the Fall Series are: BalletMet (balletmet.org), Opera Columbus (operacolumbus.org), the Columbus Historical Society (columbushistory.org), Available Light Theatre (avltheatre.com), Experience Columbus (experiencecolumbus.com), Wexner Center for the Arts (wexarts.org), CAPA (capa.com/columbus), CATCO (catco.org), the Columbus Museum of Art (columbusmuseum.org), Shadowbox (shadowboxcabaret.com), COSI (cosi.org), the Ohio Statehouse (ohiostatehouse.org), Taste of Grandview Heights (grandviewchamber.org), Wine Week at Smith & Wollensky (nationalwineweek.com), and Fred Astaire Dance Studios (fredastaire-columbusnw.com).
