Between Us | J Rawls, Ed.D.
Advertisement
Join us for the inaugural season of Between Us. This series invites Columbus’s most compelling cultural voices into Bar Room to share a deeply personal playlist made up of the songs that have shaped them.
Each evening will unfold as a collective experience in which our guest will offer a few words about the music they’ve chosen—the memories, people, and chapters of their life that it holds—before hitting play and letting us find out what happens when the songs that mean something to one of us are shared between us.
Between Us is free with registration, including access to the exhibition and Bar Room. Galleries will close at 8:00 PM while Bar Room remains open until 10:00 PM.
