COLUMBUS, Ind. – This weekend, August 15 and 16, Landmark Columbus Foundation (LCF) will unveil the Exhibit Columbus 2025 Exhibition, Yes And. This will be the fifth exhibition featuring thirteen new outdoor, site‑responsive installations built through partnerships with local organizations and inspired by the modern design legacy in Columbus.
The two‑day opening weekend is free and open to the public, offering the rare chance to experience each installation alongside the architects, artists, designers, and curators who created them. The exhibition will remain open until November 30.
Friday night kicks off with the “Rooftop Happy Hour” on top of the Jackson Street Parking Garage (8 to 11 p.m.). The party includes a DJ, sweet treats, and drinks available from local bars.
Saturday begins with the “Exhibition Walking Tour” (9 to 11:30 a.m.), guided by the designers themselves. The tour starts at the Columbus Area Visitors Center, includes light refreshments by Lucabe Coffee Co., and visits all 13 installations.
Installation activations run all day across downtown, each organized with community partners. At 1:30 p.m., the “Curatorial Conversation” at First Christian Church invites attendees to learn how the exhibition came together.
The day culminates with the “Avenue of Architects Celebration” (5:30 to 10 p.m.), when Fifth Street is transformed into a festival site with food trucks, specialty drinks, live performances, and a concert by the Peyton Womack Band.
