Our 200th aniversay deserves to be celebrated by visual communication. This April the German Village Art League will partner with the Columbus Metropolitan Library to produce ‘200’ a juried exhibition highlighting our fair city’s bicentennial.

Artists are encouraged to create work which is inspired by '200'. Suggested content considerations are not limited to, but may convey things like: a measurement of time, measurements of passage, places around our city, typographic expressions, growth and progress, technology, nostalgia.

We hope you will join us by creating visions of what the bicentennial means to you as an artist within our great city!
