Races can be so weird. You wake up frighteningly early, pay a registration fee, and pin a bib to your shirt. There are staggered starts, shoe chips, starter guns, and harried clusters of other runners. But what if you just gave everyone a high five?

Before last night, I thought murals were just really cool works of public art. 

Clintonville is one of my favorite Columbus neighborhoods. It's bohemian, family-friendly, and socially aware -- making it the perfect setting for Eco-Chic Craftacular. 

Last night I visited two art openings celebrating three Columbus artists. It was (yet) another reminder of how fortunate we are to live in such an accessible city.
