On view August 15–November 30, Exhibit Columbus 2025—"Yes And"— features thirteen new outdoor, site‑responsive installations built through partnerships with local organizations and inspired by Columbus’ modern design legacy.

Miller Prize recipients—Adaptive Operations, AD—WO, Studio Barnes, and Studio Cooke John—and six University Design Research Fellow teams, two design education teams, and a communication design studio.
