Coffee with a Cause: The Importance of the Arts in Columbus

​Start your morning with purpose and connection at Coffee with a Cause, our monthly community conversation series that brings people together over coffee and shared impact.

​This month’s program, The Importance of the Arts in Columbus, explores how the arts fuel creativity, economic vitality, and community identity across Central Ohio. From live performance and public art to arts education and creative entrepreneurship, the cultural sector plays a vital role in shaping a more vibrant, inclusive, and connected city.
