Ohio's Cultural Crossroads

Upcoming Events in Downtown Columbus

Don’t Sell Grandma’s House

@
OSU Urban Arts Space
September 2nd
11am - 6pm

Don’t Sell Grandma’s House represents a collaborative approach to recreating sites violently fractured by redlining and dispossession. The process of immersive world-building begs the question, “Where do we gather when our land is gone?” while also thinking about the modified ways that families transmit their histories in intimate and sacred spaces.

This show is on view concurrently with I Know Why the Blackbird Sings, a multimedia exhibition created by Tyiesha Radford Shorts.

Participating Artists: Keya Crenshaw, Matthew Pitts, Sharbreon Plummer, Marshall Shorts

Opening Reception: Thursday, September 4, 6–8 PM at Urban Arts Space

I Know Why the Blackbird Sings

@
OSU Urban Arts Space
September 2nd
11am - 6pm

In her titular autobiographical work, Maya Angelou asserts that “the caged bird sings of freedom.” But what song does the bird on free soil sing? I Know Why the Blackbird Sings revisits Ohio’s complicity in the practice of dispossession, kidnapping, and denial of due process through the locational efforts of Ohio’s free people.

Participating Artists: Tyiesha Radford Shorts, Valerie Boyer, Paisha Thomas

This show is on view concurrently with Don’t Sell Grandma’s House, a group exhibition curated by Tyiesha Radford Shorts.

Opening Reception: Thursday, September 4, 6–8 PM at Urban Arts Space

Weird Al brings his legendary full-production multimedia comedy rock show back to the concert stage with the BIGGER & WEIRDER 2025 Tour, playing his iconic hits as well as some never-performed-live-before fan favorites.

“Weird Al” Yankovic is the biggest-selling comedy recording artist in history. A 5-time Grammy Award winner, he is best known for his parodies of the biggest musical artists over the last 4 decades, including Madonna, Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift, Queen, U2 and Lady Gaga, all with their personal blessings. His many hits include “Amish Paradise,” “Eat It,” “Like a Surgeon,” “Smells Like Nirvana,” “Word Crimes,” and the platinum-selling “White & Nerdy.” His last album Mandatory Fun is the only comedy album in history to debut at #1 on the Billboard Top 200. Yankovic’s live shows have entertained audiences across the globe for generations, including appearances at such iconic venues as Radio City Music Hall, The Hollywood Bowl, Red Rocks, Wolf Trap, The Kennedy Center and Carnegie Hall. In 2022, Yankovic produced and co-wrote the Emmy-winning biopic WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story, starring Daniel Radcliffe in the title role.
