This October First Friday, The Columbia is proud to host Art Out Loud: Beyond the Rainbow, a pride-themed celebration of art, identity, and community. This special evening brings together local queer and allied artists to share their work, highlighting the creativity, resilience, and vibrancy of Ashland’s LGBTQ+ community.

Throughout the event, guests can explore artist booths showcasing handmade jewelry and one-of-a-kind vintage clothing curations alongside our featured artists of the month. Each artist brings their own perspective and voice, creating a rich tapestry of color, story, and expression that reflects the many ways queerness shows up in our community. It’s a chance not only to enjoy incredible art, but also to connect directly with the makers who bring it to life.
