Think Pink is Back - Vendors Wanted.

From our Community......

"Did you know that Columbus is the "Indie Art Capital of the World?" Wow! When I think of Columbus art galleries, the Short North or Grandview first come to mind.  But did you know that there are many wonderful places to experience fine arts near our neighborhood as well? Right there in the center of downtown Westerville is Gallery 202 on Rt. 3.  Not only can you see interesting and engaging art exhibitions at the gallery, you and/or your children can learn about and DO art there too! "

Comments in a recent blog: From http://www.43229.net

AND.......

"Meeting shop owners recently in uptown Westerville, I found the vibe fantastic.
They're thrilled about what looks like a resurgence in their corner of central Ohio.
"

Kristy Eckert, Columbus Dispatch

"I loved reading every word (enewsletter).  I am going to forward this to all new residents that I help find a home in Westerville.  This is the Westerville I enjoy talking about. You and your group are adding so much to our UPTOWN. Uptown is coming alive!  
  
Again, thank you.
