TLDR: A Treasure Trove of Culture and Creativity at the Columbus Museum

Visiting the Columbus Museum in Georgia is like stepping into a vibrant tapestry woven with the rich threads of local history and art. The museum's extensive collection is a testament to the area's cultural heritage, offering a profound awareness of local history that is both educational and engaging.

One of the museum's standout features is its dedication to showcasing local artists. The art exhibitions are thoughtfully curated, presenting a diverse range of styles and periods that reflect the community's creative spirit. It's a place where art enthusiasts and history buffs alike can find common ground in their appreciation for the past and present.

The fantastic balloon room is a highlight not to be missed. This immersive installation captivates visitors of all ages with its whimsical charm and interactive elements. It's a space that encourages imagination and playfulness, making it a perfect spot for families to create lasting memories.

Whether you're a local resident or a traveler seeking to uncover the gems of Georgia, the Columbus Museum is a must-visit destination.

I made a blown glass pumpkin! Kelly Robertson was the glass artist teaching the class and he was wonderful. when picking colors I ask for a certain color for the stem that he had not brought, and he ended up mixing some other things and making a custom blend to try and get the color for my pumpkin stem similar to the one I wanted. He showed us how we were going to do everything and helped us, so that there was no way that we would end up with a wonky looking pumpkin. We had brought a 10 year old with our group and he was wonderful talking to her at her level and not overloading her with information and making sure that her pumpkin came out just as good as the adults Pumpkins did. Case friendly and outgoing and loves to talk to people. The next day when I went to go pick up my pumpkins, even though he was helping prep for a class he recognized me, an impressive feat since I had gone the day before wearing old jeans and t-shirt my hair pulled back in ponytail and the day that I picked up my pumpkins waa Sunday so my hair was down, makeup on, and in a dress and heels. and I know that he really knew who I was because he called me by the nickname that he had given me, Birmingham. I cannot wait for Christmas when we do Snowman and...

Awesome experience & service !!! Beautiful exhibit !!!!!! A Must see. The Women who work at this place are extremely kind & lovely. My only BAD experience was the man, not sure if he was Caucasian or Arab or even mixed with something other than black, but there was a lot of pacing back and forth everywhere we were, peeped in on us not speaking or redirecting us on where we should be, and when he noticed we saw him, he hurried off quickly. Later someone kindly came to explain something to us, after we had already been granted permission to go where we liked, more than likely because he was creating an issue. But she allowed us to finish all of what we were doing. He stood around waiting until the very end never giving eye contact, a hello or a welcoming smile, or vibe like everyone else. Holding his head down. Full beard, dark & white hair. Maybe kind of bald. Name I’m Not sure. Honestly felt he had a disdain for us. Above all of that, he did not ruin this amazing experience, and because of all the positive things, I will surely be back. I just hope to see more...
