New CMA Exhibition Showcases Columbus Artists to Watch

The Columbus Museum of Art is launching the 'Greater Columbus: 2026 Visual Arts Fellowship Exhibition' on April 15, featuring the work of six local artists. This annual showcase, organized in partnership with the Greater Columbus Arts Council, highlights the recipients of the 2025 Visual Arts Fellowship, including artist Dana Lynn Harper.

This exhibition marks the 40th anniversary of a program dedicated to fostering the regional creative economy and providing a high-profile platform for local talent. By bridging the gap between individual studio practices and major institutional recognition, the fellowship remains a cornerstone of the Columbus arts community and a vital indicator of the city's evolving contemporary art scene.
