Columbia City’s first Summer in the City event is this Saturday, June 8, from 9 to 11 a.m. on the City Hall lawn.

In partnership with the City of Columbia City, the Columbia City Arts Commission presents Taste of the Arts. Local artists will be on site and are excited to give residents a “taste” of acrylic painting, watercolors, tap dancing and drums. Artists will have work available to view and opportunities for public participation will be available.

This event is free and open to the public.
