COLUMBUS-INDIE ART CAPITAL OF THE WORLD!

Columbus-Indie Art Capital of the World.

Been hesitant in touching this subject, so here goes. The only way this movement will materialize into something more than a proclamation is if the we embrace it in it's entirety. Not just appoint it to the artists or bloggers or city officials but everyone. Experience Columbus should incorporate it into their marketing campaign targeted at tourists and visitors. Area restaurants should help market it in conjunction with artists of every form. The only way it will work will be to take an all hands on deck approach and not assume others will spread the word. Show the world or at least this country why you deserve to me that title and what you have to offer.

WHILE WE WAIT FOR THAT "ALBUM" TO DROP
