Determined to build community through the arts, the multidisciplinary arts organization Wild Goose Creative opened a new center in Franklinton on Friday.
The newly renovated facility comes nearly two years after the nonprofit launched a Kickstarter campaign to extend its services locally. After raising more than $25,000 within 40 days, the organization landed the privately-owned space.
And with the pulse of Columbus art scene in the heart of the Franklinton area, Executive Director Lydia Simon said there was no better place for expansion. In Franklinton, everybody is helping each other, and I ve never experienced that in Columbus as far as businesses valuing partnerships as much as they do, Simon said. It s just amazing.
