I had a blast visiting kids at the Marion Franklin Community Center on Wednesday. They’re taking part in one of the incredible summer camps put on by the Columbus Recreation and Parks Department.

At the Great Art Getaway camp, kids and teens get to express themselves through all kinds of art while making new friends. This week’s theme is Enchanted Forest, and it was great to see what these creative minds came up with!
