Celebrate creativity and culture through the experience of American art, regional history, tranquil gardens, and more. As a destination for people of all interests and ages, The Columbus Museum — or COMU — has something for everyone — from the art enthusiast to the history buff, the nature lover to the leisure visitor — it's free and it's all in one space!
The Columbus Museum is proud to announce the opening of Reckonings and Reconstructions: Southern Photography from The Do Good Fund, a landmark exhibition showcasing a compelling range of images that explore the diverse social, cultural, and historical narratives of the American South. The exhibition will be on view at COMU from October 19, 2024, to February 2, 2025.
Amy Sherald shot to superstardom when her portrait of former first lady Michelle Obama debuted in 2018, and now the artist will have a homecoming of sorts at a major museum show at the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C. Opening in September 2025, “Amy Sherald: American Sublime” constitutes the most expansive exhibition of the artist to date.
"It's been a really challenging year," said Liz Wolverton, the head of consumer banking at Synovus Financial, who ticked off pressing obstacles that include high interest rates and rival financial institutions with more resources to invest in technology.
