A New Era For Stonewall Columbus
Central Ohio’s LGBTQ+ community center got a makeover! The new “Center On High” is slated to open to the public in Spring 2019. By Kaylee Duff Mid-November, Stonewall Columbus (SWC) invited several local LGBTQ+ community leaders, activists and organization members to attend a “first look” at their newly renovated community center. While there, the True Team got a chance to take a sneak peek at what is sure to become a hotspot for education, advocacy and creativity.
The “Center on High” has long been a symbol for queer Columbus, and is being expanded to reflect and accommodate our community’s growth and expansion. The City of Columbus is rapidly increasing in population size and activity; central Ohio’s diversity is growing equally as fast. The new building coincides with a revamping of the overall aesthetic, as well. Last month, Stonewall Columbus revealed their new logo, which is the most significant change the company has seen to their branding
