Art Out Loud: Beyond the Rainbow
Come celebrate Ashland Pride with us this First Friday!
This October First Friday, The Columbia is proud to host Art Out Loud: Beyond the Rainbow, a pride-themed celebration of art, identity, and community. This special evening brings together local queer and allied artists to share their work, highlighting the creativity, resilience, and vibrancy of Ashland’s LGBTQ+ community.
Throughout the event, guests can explore artist booths showcasing handmade jewelry and one-of-a-kind homemade crafts alongside our featured artists of the month. Each artist brings their own perspective and voice, creating a rich tapestry of color, story, and expression that reflects the many ways queerness shows up in our community. It’s a chance not only to enjoy incredible art, but also to connect directly with the makers who bring it to life.
Art Out Loud: Beyond the Rainbow is more than just an art show—it’s a space for connection, visibility, and celebration. Whether you’re a longtime supporter of Ashland’s queer community or simply curious to experience something new, this event invites you to step into the vibrancy of pride expressed through art, performance, and togetherness.
Join us on Friday, October 2, 2026, at The Columbia Hotel in downtown Ashland for an unforgettable evening where art and pride shine side by side.
