COLUMBUS, Ind. — Design presentations for the late summer and fall Exhibit Columbus exhibition will be done online March 19 and March 26.
Presentations will be grouped on each of those dates according to physical locations of the planned, creative structures around the city, according to Anne Surak, Exhibit Columbus’ director. She said there will be a pair of two-hour sessions on each date to allow people to better pick and choose what they wish to watch.
“Each time, we have done things a little differently,” Surak said.
One change this time will be that all viewers must register beforehand through Eventbrite in order to watch the free presentations. During last year’s virtual symposium, people could simply join the audience online on Facebook or YouTube.com.
This third exhibition highlighting the interplay of Columbus’ best-known Modernist structures with temporary, pop-up architecture from some of the world’s leading designers will begin with opening celebration events Aug. 20-22 under the theme “New Middles.”
The inaugural exhibition in 2017 attracted an estimated 40,000 people and untold global attention via social media and dozens of respected media sites. The second exhibition in 2019 attracted an estimated 30,000 people.
