I have attended several events, over the years, at Wild Goose Creative.

During much of 2012, I had participated in a Wild Goose Creative Writers Group. I am a non-fiction writer [journalist] but I very much hope that I am creative.

About a year ago, Simply Living had held its 2018 Holiday Open House at Wild Goose Creative at least in part because that space is wheelchair-accessible. I remember two Simply Living people who are wheelchair users who had attended that event.

Yesterday [6-8-2019], Humanist Community of Central Ohio [HCCO] had hosted an all-day AHA [American Humanist Association "Virtual" Annual Conference] Viewing Party and Potluck. We had gathered for a total of eight hours at Wild Goose Creative and had watched the AHA conference "streamed live" and projected onto a large screen while others who had been present had had conversations elsewhere in the room.

During the HCCO event, on the walls at Wild Goose Creative, had been an art exhibition entitled "Chromatic: LGBTQ+ Experience in Columbus."

To quote from the Wild Goose Creative website, "As a reflection of the anniversary of the Stonewall riots that occurred in 1969, over 20 local LGBTQ+ artists explore their experience as LGBTQ+ in Columbus as well as reflect how things have evolved over the past 50 years. From political strife to social gain, this month's show honors all parts of queer history past, present and future obstacles in supporting the queer community, ways that we have made progress, and ideas for future growth."

The art on the walls at Wild Goose Creative had certainly been a great backdrop for yesterday's HCCO event.
