It’s Pelotonia season, the time of year when thousands come together as one to support cancer research at Ohio State.
Since its first bike ride in 2009, Pelotonia has grown into a Buckeye State tradition that includes Gravel Day and kids’ events, raising more than $309 million for The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC – James).
Pelotonia’s impact has changed the OSUCCC – James in countless ways, from cancer programs, clinical trials and funding for students and established oncologists, to the Ohio State campus itself, with the opening of the Pelotonia Research Center and the Pelotonia Institute for Immuno-Oncology.
“It’s an incredible honor to become a part of the Pelotonia community,” says new OSUCCC – James CEO Kimryn Rathmell, MD, PhD. “I can’t emphasize enough what a differentiator Pelotonia is for Ohio State –their support really elevates the research of our cancer program across the whole university. I look forward to pedaling along with this wonderful community at Ride Week, learning from everyone and tapping into their immense energy and commitment to create a cancer-free world.”
Pelotonia-funded cancer care and research
Pelotonia funds have supported a wide variety of cancer research, including the following initiatives and studies:
• OSUCCC – James experts teamed with colleagues from Nationwide Children’s Hospital to open the region’s first Proton Therapy Center, offering highly-targeted radiation treatments for adult and pediatric cancer patients. Pelotonia supports some of the research conducted at the facility, housed at The James Outpatient Care.
• Pelotonia supports a first-in-human clinical trial involving a therapy developed at the OSUCCC – James designed to stop an enzyme that enables cancer to grow and spread. The trial will first enroll patients with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and some solid tumors.
• OSUCCC – James researchers, with the help of Pelotonia funding, discovered that a combination of two drugs can help reduce treatment resistance in glioblastoma, the deadliest form of brain cancer, which could have a significant impact on cancer biology and metabolism.
• Pelotonia helps cancer researchers bring their ideas to life. Through the Pelotonia Idea Grant program, Ohio State faculty researchers are awarded funding to gather early data on cutting-edge concepts. Those findings can lead to larger studies, which in turn can help researchers build the future of cancer care.

How Pelotonia fuels immuno-oncology innovation
Immunotherapy is a full-time focus at the OSUCCC – James, where researchers work every day to develop new ways to treat cancer with patients’ own natural defenses. “We’re committed to major progress in immuno-oncology,” says Zihai Li, MD, PhD, the founding director of the Pelotonia Institute for Immuno-Oncology (PIIO). “We’ve recruited amazing investigators from around the country and conducted hundreds of clinical trials.”
The PIIO team and its impact have grown significantly since its 2019 creation to include:
• More than 120 researchers
• More than 250 clinical trials
• More than 1200 published scientific papers
One PIIO study re-engineered T cells from a patient’s blood and genetically modified them to better recognize, attack and kill cancer cells in glioblastoma.
“A similar approach has been effective in treating a variety of leukemias and multiple myeloma, but nothing has been approved for treating solid tumors,” Li says about the treatment, called CAR T-cell therapy. “We think this is a potential way to do it, and we’re very excited by this.”

Along with the annual two-day bike ride with routes ranging from 24 to 190 miles, Pelotonia offers multiple options to join the effort to create a cancer-free world through research at Ohio State.
In 2023, adventurous cyclists hit the rocky roads of southeastern Ohio at the inaugural Gravel Day event, which is expanding this year to include a trail run/hike for those who prefer two shoes to two wheels.
Pelotonia also goes beyond the bike through its Challenger option, which allows participants to choose their own activity goals, as well as Pelotonia Kids events that take place throughout the spring and summer.
“The Pelotonia community continues to show up year after year with a shared purpose: to fund innovative research that will change lives,” Pelotonia CEO Joe Apgar says. “The passion and commitment of our participants and donors continue to pave the path for impact. Whether it’s your first time or 17th year, there’s an opportunity for you to make a real impact on ending cancer through your participation.”

Many people who like dining out in Columbus have high praise for Chapman’s Eat Market. It’s got a fun, global menu that takes us from the fanciest of large plates to what people say are the best French fries to be had anywhere in the city (it’s the beef fat they’re fried in). It’s set in the trendiest of neighborhoods, German Village, on an iconic street corner where the Columbus institution, Max & Erma’s, operated a popular restaurant for decades. The interior was transformed by Chapman’s from a dark wood tavern into a pink and green Millennial dream. And in BJ Lieberman, the restaurant has a lauded chef who brought his Washington, D.C., Michelin Star cred to Columbus with house-churned ice cream and General Tso’s cauliflower.

man’s open.
In July, the restaurant announced that it will close in August, after just five years in business. The news came in time for the editors at Columbus Monthly to reconsider including Chapman’s on our list of Best Restaurants for 2025, which starts on Page 20. After much back and forth—they’re still open another month, after all—we decided to pull the restaurant from the list.
That does not mean Chapman’s wasn’t one of the best places to have a fine meal in Columbus. It was. We’ll have a story online with the photos and vignette we created celebrating the restaurant.

I had what was one of the best meals of my life (so far!) on the evening of my 46th birthday at Chapman’s, set in the private dining room surrounded by friends and plate after plate of interesting flavor juxtapositions, all described lovingly by the chefs who prepared them. I recall the dessert was adorned with real gold leaf. It sparkled. It dazzled. It was edible. And none of that was enough to keep Chap-
Real estate developer and transit advocate Bob Weiler reacted to a profile of the new CEO at the Central Ohio Transit Authority in the July issue of Columbus Monthly:
Just finished reading the profile of the new COTA CEO. Laura Newpoff is an outstanding writer, and she had a good subject in Monica Téllez-Fowler.
My concern, as one who actively supported LinkUS, is that the $6.2 billion in levy funds will not be fully utilized under the current fare system. Only by making COTA rides
I take the closing as one more chip on a mountain of evidence that running a restaurant is hard work, and reaching profitability is tough. The odds are stacked against these entrepreneurs. Not all of them make it. And that’s the way of things.
As for Lieberman, he recently opened an Italian place in the Short North, Metsi’s. My best wishes to him and to Metsi’s in finding success in this new endeavor.

free will we exceed the 19 million passengers reached in 2019. Wouldn’t you think with $6 billion of levy money that we could find $20 million to underwrite the small per centage of fare income? (Fares fund 17 percent of COTA’s budget.) You may be aware that over $300,000 is being spent for a feasibility study on this subject, although a previous study was performed outlining the benefits of eliminating the fare. It never left the previous CEO’s office.

Nonprofits face a perilous year ahead as state and federal funding disappear and need spikes.
By Michael Corey
It’s a tough time for nonprofits, here and across the country.
That is true for a very simple reason: Costs and demands are up, and the supply of funding for nonprofits to pay those costs and meet those demands is down.
Unfortunately, Ohio’s new state budget, and particularly the new federal budget, are set to make matters worse.
For example:
• Ohio’s budget will make it harder for child care providers to stay afloat, while concurrently failing to address a $600 million shortfall in child care funding next biennium.
• The federal budget is cutting $1 trillion from Medicaid, which will cause about 500,000 Ohioans to lose health care coverage. This will have an enormous impact on hospitals as well as nonprofits, but Congress created a $50 billion fund to help only rural hospitals navigate the fallout. There is no such support for any other nonprofit, though the consequences will be just as challenging
to navigate.
• The federal budget will cut $230 billion from SNAP and will shift unsustainable costs and burdens onto states, local government and charitable food networks already stretched precariously thin.
To make matters even worse, the White House has indicated it will be reinstituting a federal funding freeze for active grants with nonprofit and other organizations. Though the specifics are unclear as of this writing, it’s expected to mirror the tumultuous funding freeze attempt earlier this year that federal courts blocked from implementation.
Lastly, another federal spending package will be quarreled over between now and September that will have implications for housing, child care and health research, among other things.
So we have our work cut out for us.
Against that backdrop, it’s no surprise that 62 percent of Human Service Chamber members tell us that the “state of the sector” is bad—or worse—right now.
(That sentiment is reflected in national surveys, as well.)
What concerns all of us most, however, is that 80 percent of our members report that they cannot meet the current demand for their services.
With all of the uncertainty facing the nonprofit sector (and so many other sectors, including our friends in the business community), we are certain of this: More than ever, people are going to turn to nonprofits for help, and for hope, in the months ahead.
So despite it all, that is what Central Ohio’s nonprofits and the 20,000 people who work within them will do. These are people who have devoted their lives to helping others no matter how hard we as a society make it to do so.
I hope you will join me in finding ways to rally around these public servants to meet our community’s needs, whatever the future holds. ◆

Columbus writer Chris DeVille tackles one of modern music’s most prolific, stylized and amorphous genres in his debut book.
By Lucy Clark
“Life would never be the same again. I had discovered indie rock,” writes Chris DeVille in his debut book, “Such Great Heights: The Complete Cultural History of the Indie Rock Explosion,” which will be published by St. Martin’s Press, a division of Macmillan Publishers, on Aug. 26.
DeVille is a music journalist and managing editor of the music blog Stereogum He’s also a Columbus native and resident (and a regular contributor to Columbus Monthly). The book’s title comes from a song of the same name by The Postal Service, one of many indie bands it explores.
“How did ‘indie’ music get from Pavement to Carley Rae?” DeVille posits in a chapter titled “Art Angles,” the title referencing an album by synth-pop musician and infamous online cause celebre Grimes. And how on earth did major pop names like Taylor Swift become part of the conversation around indie rock?
“Such Great Heights” offers context and potential answers to these questions and many more that have long proliferated in impassioned online forums.
More than an exploration of indie rock’s rise to popularity, DeVille charts the unique set of circumstances that were both causes and effects of the music movement. From the creation of online communities on Myspace, Twitter and Tumblr, to the rise of hipsters and their unique folksy brand of indie, the dance scene brought on by indie sleaze zealots, the impact of Spotify and more, there are few subcultures and phenomenon left untouched by DeVille’s cultural exhumation.
Much like indie rock itself, DeVille strikes a tonal note of cheekily flippant affection that does little to conceal his
“Such
earnestness and nostalgia. He looks back not only at the music that catapulted his career, but his own youth and, in turn, both his generation’s coming-of-age and that of those who follow, eager to find their footing in the ever-evolving genre.
“[A]fter a lifetime mediated by devices and antiseptic apps, it was no surprise to see Gen Z romanticizing a freer, sloppier time before constant smartphone use,” he writes. He also periodically situates his real-time engagement with the indie music scene in all its lifeforms in Columbus, giving even more of a touchstone for local readers.
As an indie acolyte myself, I found DeVille’s approach both fair to its place in the music industry holistically and appreciative to fans like himself that built the genre’s aesthetics and culture over the years.
He does not shy away from indie rock’s darker moments, frankly tackling topics like homophobia, sexism and racism in both artists and fans, the sexual abuse at the hands of many of indie’s biggest billed names, and figureheads who have taken a turn for the controversial.
If you’re an alumnus of the dive bars that sparked the genre’s major artists, a newcomer to all-things-indie or simply interested in cultural history and retrospectives, be sure to start this book with an appetite for nostalgia and your pre-

A new lecture series combines great minds and great drinks for a night equal parts entertaining and academic.
By Kevin Elliott
“You know the old saying, ‘in vino veritas’, ” says Betsy Zacks, co-creator of The Siposium, a monthly lecture series where beer and big ideas go hand in hand. “When people drink a little bit, they tend to open up a little bit. It leads to discussions where people are more likely to participate. Here you don’t have to raise your hand if you don’t want to.”
Launched in October 2024, The Siposium was developed by Zacks, a longtime educator, and Jacquie Sierzputowski, a marketing professional with a talent for bringing people together. The idea was simple—to create a space where academic research and important questions could live outside the walls of a university. The result is a series that rewards curiosity without requiring credentials or tuition besides the cost of a ticket.
The first Siposium was held in October 2024 at Antiques on High and featured Nikki Kendra Davis, who presented “Being Ghosted: Why Are We Haunted?” With a master’s degree in performance studies from New York University and ongoing work with theater companies across Columbus, Da-
Upcoming talks include a cultural history of football and masculinity on Sept. 9 at Columbus Brewing Co. Beer Hall; a deep dive into the failures of recycling on Oct. 7; and a timely lecture on witches, rebellion and pop culture obsession on Oct. 27.

vis’ talk challenged attendees to think of ghosts not just as folklore, but as a lens for understanding historical trauma.
“In my lecture I wanted to introduce the power and potential of understanding certain embodied experiences as a haunting from ghosts,” Davis says. “I just wanted to posit this offering to teach people how to use these cultural words, ‘ghosts’ and ‘haunting,’ to ask deeper questions about what might be lingering.”
Since then, The Siposium has hosted a rotating cast of graduate students, historians, researchers and artists, many of them connected to Ohio State
University. The subject matter changes each month—protecting your civil rights with Benjamin Tracy, the influence of traditional homemaker tropes on modern society with Carlye Mahler, or insect romance with entomologist Mark Berman—but the process stays the same. Zacks and Sierzputowski start with the speaker and build the evening around what they have to say, finding a suitable venue with libations that sweeten the experience.
In May, the Siposium took place in Land-Grant Brewing Co.’s beer garden, where Neil Humphrey, who just earned his doctorate in environmental history from Ohio State, spoke about his final dissertation and the long, evolving relationship between humans and their dogs. Audience members were encouraged to bring their own pets.
“I wanted to connect academia with the general public, so this was something completely unique,” Humphrey says. “I could bring my dog, and the audience could bring their pets, and I could turn my studies into something a bit more interactive. There’s so much merit in all of this.” ◆
At Guitar House Workshop, one couple is nourishing their community.
By Sophia Veneziano
If customers stop by Guitar House Workshop in the summertime, they might leave with a few vegetables in hand.
Operating out of a reclaimed house at 1423 Chambers Road near Grandview Heights, the shop was a dream of its owner, John Bolzenius, that came to life.
Beyond music lessons, guitar repair and an array of stringed instruments available for purchase, visitors will find a lush garden out back that is tended by Bolzenius’ wife, artist Linda Langhorst.
Through both the food and the music, the pair feeds their community.
“Music is salvation for a lot of people. It’s a lot of people’s religion. It’s mine. We sell instruments and accessories, but really, what we’re here for is to help people on their musical trip,” Bolzenius says.
Passionate about gardening and tackling food insecurity, Langhorst says she loves it when people, especially kids, can see that their food comes from the earth.
When she met Bolzenius, she was serving with South Side Community Ministries, a food pantry operating in Merion
Village. At the time, the food pantry was struggling to make ends meet.
“It’s all donations, and we didn’t have enough funds,” Langhorst explains. Gesturing to her husband, she laughs that his answer to everything is holding a concert. “We had a benefit concert, and then Guitar House got more involved from that point on.”
Guitar House Workshop since has been a partner of the pantry, representing the couple’s commitment to making their business a reflection of what they believe and bringing people together in a divided era. “There have to be places where we get together and do things together in spite of our differences. To me, music is one of those few holdouts,” Bolzenius says.
Over the years, the shop has collected thousands of dollars to donate to the pantry. In its largest year, over $5,000 was collected, Langhorst says. While some of these donations are made through cash or check, she says many are just made the old-fashioned way: with cash collected in
a jar and handed over to the pantry.
Additionally, the pantry’s governing board now includes three members who became involved through the shop. Each month, Guitar House Workshop sends a team of volunteers to help with food delivery, unloading thousands of pounds of food purchased from the Mid-Ohio Food Collective.
“Hungry kids need to get fed. It doesn’t matter your politics. It’s hard to argue with 100 kids in need,” Langhorst says. “People work together. They work next to each other, and they realize they’re not all that different.” ◆

Three years have passed since Columbus Monthly released a Best Restaurants list. With the explosive growth of our dining scene in the interim, this felt like the right moment to take another look at the city’s top dining establishments.
Our nine Best Restaurants of 2025—which are not ranked in any order—showcase the creativity and talent of fine dining establishments and their respective chefs, whether they have been around for over 40 years or have yet to celebrate their first birthday.
Recognizing that great restaurants come in many shapes and forms, we’ve also expanded our recommendations to include additional noteworthy restaurants—highlighting 100 in total— serving all types of cuisine at a range of price points in neighborhoods across town. You’ll find those starting on Page 93.
A mainstay on this list, Veritas retains a space for evolving tasting menus that take guests around the world.
If Delaware, Ohio, is still smarting over Veritas’ move to Downtown Columbus, we wouldn’t blame them—but we’re also not giving it back. Josh Dalton’s eatery distinguished itself as one of the best in Central Ohio well before it moved to Gay and High streets in 2017. Now it’s a centerpiece of Downtown’s hippest intersection. Its culinary team employs every technique in the book to craft an inspiring and ever-changing tasting menu that invites repeated visits.
WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT IT
• Veritas’ tasting menus draw inspiration from its team members’ travels, so you can experience culinary delights from the Mediterranean to Korea to London and beyond.
• If you’re not up for a tasting menu, you can grab seats at the bar to enjoy the dynamic bar menu, where you can feast on lobster rolls, caviar and confit wings.
• Veritas’ cocktail program is not to be ignored; it’s as expertly crafted as the food menu. No visit to Veritas seems complete without a stop at its upstairs cocktail bar, The Citizens Trust.

Recognized on this list for the second time, classic Indian ingredients are combined in innovative ways and complemented by colorful cocktails.
Rooh joined the area dining scene at the end of 2019, with its first year in Columbus marked by the pandemic. Yet the restaurant not only found its footing, it’s thriving. Though part of a small international chain— other locations are in San Francisco, New Delhi and Palo Alto—eating at Rooh still feels intimate and customized for Columbus.
Father-son team Ashok and Bhavesh Kishinchand founded the Short North location, and Bhavesh’s son Yash has been Rooh’s general manager and executive chef since late 2020. (Yash also founded Flour Modern Pasta Bar in 2024.) That familial comfort comes through in Rooh’s dishes.
• Rooh’s limited menu takes staple Indian dishes you may have had elsewhere and elevates them with its own unique twists. You won’t find saag paneer on
this menu, but you will find a Paneer Pinwheel with made with red pepper makhani and a Feta Saag made with spinach curry.
• The cocktails—organized by the six Ayurvedic tastes—are enticing and delicious, with non-alcoholic options available that maintain the complexity of their boozy cousins.
• Rooh’s staff is helpful in navigating the menu and making recommendations for both seasoned Indian food eaters and those new to the cuisine. Options are clearly labeled on the menu for those with dietary restrictions.

Columbus’ longstanding fine dining establishment retains a place on this list for delivering inventive fare in a romantic setting.
Synonymous with a special night out in Columbus since its 1980s opening, The Refectory Restaurant maintains its classic French and contemporary American culinary flourish. A refectory is a dining hall in a convent or monastery, and the name refers to the buildings that house the restaurant—an 1850s church and schoolhouse. A world-class wine cellar with several hundred selections has brought the restaurant top recognition from Wine Spectator for decades.
WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT IT
• The atmosphere is refined and romantic. Go in the winter and sit in the bistro by the fireplace—it’s the same one that warmed the school that inhabited the building in the 1850s.
• The dining room’s menu changes nightly, with appetizers, soups, salads, meat and seafood courses, and dessert.
• You can choose the chef’s five-course tasting menu—including a vegetarian option—or the warm, expert staff can craft a custom tasting menu for you from among the night’s offerings. Just share your preferences and turn the decisions (and the negotiations with your dining partners) over to them.

The bustling bistro in the heart of German Village is a Columbus classic—a place to see and be seen.
Ah, Lindey’s. Convivial, contemporary, always crushing it. Who can deny this queen of the Columbus dining scene is still one of the city’s best places to have dinner (and lunch and brunch and happy hour)? From the moment you approach the restaurant, set on a brick-lined street under generous shade trees, to the time one of its attentive waitstaff asks whether you saved room for dessert, you’ll be transported to an artful, fun world that feels like a neighborhood spot somewhere in New York, only it’s so much nicer.
WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT IT
• The menu offers the right balance of tried-and-true—lamb chops and steak frites—and cuisine a la mode—compressed watermelon with fresno chile puree—to give diners a reason to come back again and again.
• A lively copper bar, three dining rooms, a pretty stone patio with a bar, fountain and second-floor outdoor seating— Lindey’s has many environments in which to gather.
• The patio is among the city’s best places to dine outdoors. Get there early if you’d like to eat outside during the usual dinner hour. The restaurant takes reservations for inside tables only (and you should definitely make them).

Columbus’ first omakase restaurant is recognized for its meticulous approach to sushi, elevating less common fish.
It’s not terribly surprising that Haru Omakase—Columbus’ first traditional Japanese sushi tasting menu restaurant—lands on our Best Restaurants list this year. Yet it is worth mentioning Haru is the newest restaurant on the list, a testament to the work of talented chef Yudi Makassau. He artfully serves custom dishes using the highest quality seasonal fish available, tailored to his interactions with the guests who visit on a given night. With Haru, owners Yenny and Jeff Tsao expand their footprint of authentic Japanese offerings in Columbus, which also includes the fast casual chain of Fukuryu Ramen shops. (Haru was previously one of those shops before reopening in its current form.)
• Haru’s sushi is made to order with pristine and less common fish varieties such as bluenose or golden threadfin.
• The theater of Haru makes for an unparalled dining experience. While per person cost is high ($99 to start, before beverages), it’s worth spending the extra $10 to sit at the sushi bar to have direct access to the chefs and be in conversation with the guests next to you.
• The menu changes regularly with the seasonal availability of the fish, making each visit unique.

Selected as a 2025 Columbus Monthly Best New Restaurant, Gene’s debuts on this list for its approachable menu and inviting atmosphere.
Iremember my excitement when I heard that the owners of Dublin’s Coast Wine House—Dustin and Molly Snow—were opening a nearby restaurant. Expecting a wine-focused establishment, I was pleased to discover that Gene’s is so much more. At Gene’s, you can get an excellent meal at a reasonable price in a space that is both elegant and unpretentious. The culinary vision of executive chef Bobby Moore and the hospitality expertise of general manager and wine director Michael Vehlber are apparent throughout your meal.
WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT IT
• Gene’s relatively small menu allows the kitchen to focus on what is seasonal and fresh, ensuring everything offered is well-executed, while providing options that will satisfy any craving. (Main dishes on the summer menu include pork, cod, striploin and vegetari-
an chicken-fried mushrooms.)
• The wine selections showcase the food without being showy. During one visit, our server shared that there was no overlap between the wines available that night and those sold at Coast— they were focused on serving what would best highlight the food. While the restaurant is wine-forward, cocktail lovers will find options that meet the high caliber of Gene’s other offerings.
• The setting, inside a farmhouse that is over a century old, is cozy and intimate—eating at Gene’s makes you feel like you’re home for the evening.

After receiving national acclaim since its opening in 2023, Agni debuts on the Best Restaurants list for its boundary-pushing tasting menu.
In two short years, chef Avishar Barua’s Agni—named for the Hindu god of fire—has earned accolades both locally and nationally, from shoutouts in Bon Appetit to top rankings from USA Today. The Brewery District eatery builds one of the city’s most dynamic tasting menus around a blend of wood-fired grilling technique, ingenuity and inspiration that is both widely global and deeply local. Barua and his team keep their food solidly grounded in the Midwest while branching out to explore international flavors.
• Agni’s robust tasting menu easily tops more than a dozen different bites, with detours and surprises along the way. Not to be missed is the expert wine-pairing selection that is crafted for each menu.
• Barua has spoken openly of his love of fast food growing up, and part of the sheer delight of Agni’s menu is seeing this love creep through in the form of fries, nuggets and sandwiches.
• If you follow Barua on social media, you’ll know that his international travels will eventually trickle down to Agni’s menu, with flavors from Thailand, Malaysia, Mexico and China featuring on recent editions.

Central Ohio’s urban deer population has exploded, leading to complaints and polarized debates. Worthington decided to do something about it, and the rest of the region is watching.
By Joel Oliphint
Lesley Welch and her family moved into their Worthington home right around Thanksgiving in 2015. As they settled in, the first snowfall arrived, and Welch remembers gathering her kids next to the window to marvel at two stately bucks in the front yard. It was as if the deer were posing for them in the fresh, white powder—a cozy scene fit for a holiday card.
“We pretended they were Santa’s reindeer,” Welch says. “It was so beautiful.”
For a while, they enjoyed their new white-tailed friends. But over time, the warm feelings began to fade. The deer grew in numbers and began to linger around the house. Welch’s dog, Dexter, tore ligaments in both hind legs after chasing deer. Later, a doe gave birth in the backyard and defended her fawn by kicking Welch’s other dog, Ruby. Eventually, the family couldn’t let Ruby out at night.
In the fall, during the rut—whitetailed deer breeding season—bucks scraped paint off the family’s backyard barn with their antlers. And after multiple landscape overhauls, deer destroyed thousands of dollars of plants. Welch tried installing a vertical garden near the back door, but the deer came right up to the house and ate the plants. “Now I just put fake flowers in pots because that’s the only thing that’s truly deer-proof,” she says.
Even though Welch’s driveway sits on a busy road—Rt. 161, just a couple of blocks from High Street—she sees deer in her yard almost daily and has counted as many as 11 at once. They aren’t the least bit scared of Welch or her family. One year a doe even gave birth in their garage.
“I’ve gotten out of the car at night without realizing they’re standing right there. It scared the living crap out of me,” she says. “I grew up on farmland in the middle of Marion County, and I’ve never seen more deer in my entire life. This is not normal.”
Welch isn’t alone. The deer are all over Worthington, and resident complaints have ramped up in recent years. Gardeners can’t keep their flowers and shrubs
intact without installing tall fences. And the deer, they say, no longer act wild. With no predators and no fear of humans or pets, they travel with impunity wherever their hooves take them. Some in Worthington swear they’ve seen deer look both ways before crossing the suburb’s busiest streets. One resident told me that recently, on an early-morning airport run, she saw deer licking the patio tables at La Chatelaine—a beloved French bistro on High Street in the heart of Old Worthington.
For some residents, enough is enough. They want the city to take action, even if that means using lethal methods to cull the herd. While surveys show that most Worthington residents enjoy seeing deer, the majority also say the population is out of control. Others, though, are appalled by the idea of killing deer in Worthington. On social media, where nuance and civility are routinely jettisoned for hard lines and vitriol, residents on either side of the issue toss barbs back and forth. In a single city of Worthington Facebook post about deer, you’ll find some commenters saying, “Shoot them all,” and others saying, “Leave them alone.”
To settle the issue, Worthington convened a Deer Task Force in late 2023. After a year of surveys, educational sessions and discussion, the task force made its recommendations to Worthington City Council at the end of 2024, and earlier this year, council members voted unanimously to reduce Worthington’s deer population via a targeted removal program, which usually involves hiring contracted sharpshooters.
Worthington isn’t the only Central Ohio community dealing with deer conflicts, of course. Since 1984, Metro Parks has controlled deer populations throughout its park system with a management program that can include lottery hunts. New Albany has operated an Urban Deer Management Program since 2004, and a few other municipalities outside the I-270 outerbelt, such as Granville, also have established programs. Gahanna used to have an archery program for culling deer but did away with it in 2019.
Whitehall City Council considered a program earlier this year but opted to table the proposed ordinance. In June, Columbus launched an anonymous survey to better understand residents’ feelings about deer in their neighborhoods.
During a December 2024 event on urban deer hosted by Ohio State University’s Environmental Professionals Network, Jeremy Bruskotter, a professor at Ohio State’s School of Environment and Natural Resources, detailed a sobering history of human-wildlife conflicts in America. By 1870, just about all large land mammals except white-tailed deer had disappeared from Ohio: lynx, wolf, cougar, black bear, bison, elk. And by the early 1900s, according to most sources, the only known deer in the state resided in captivity at Cleveland’s Wade Park Zoo.
Ohio later reintroduced white-tailed deer, but by then their predators were gone, which led to dramatic population growth over the last century. In fact, Bruskotter cited a study showing that white-tailed deer are the most abundant wild mammal in the world by weight. But that’s not the primary reason this problem has become so polarized. Societal changes have led to conflicts over animals’ purpose, worth and moral relevance. Today, Bruskotter says, we’re faced with “camps or tribes that view wildlife in largely incompatible ways.”
When Gary Comer of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife gives presentations on white-tailed deer to communities across the state, he often shows audiences photos of a natural, forested area and a developed, suburban scene. “Which of the two landscapes supports higher deer populations?” he asks.
Most people assume it’s the forest. But the urbanized environment supports higher numbers. The white-tailed deer is an “edge” species that thrives in transitional areas where different habitats meet. “These fragmented, urbanized areas provide edge, with a lot of diversity,” says Comer, a wildlife management supervisor. “There’s enough of the required habitat as far as cover and food. It’s really a smorgasbord. And there’s no predation.”
Suburban yards become a bottomless salad bar: Once the deer eat everything in a yard, they move on to a different property, then circle back to devour all the newly planted replacements. “People
often say that we took all their habitat. That’s a complete fallacy. It’s the exact opposite. You’ve got people who are providing essentially unlimited food sources,” says Geoff Westerfield, who specializes in human-wildlife conflict for the Division of Wildlife.
As deer eat more and more plants, even the supposedly “deer-resistant” varieties, the biodiversity of an ecosystem suffers. Overbrowsing can lead to the disappearance of native species of flowers and trees and an overabundance of species the deer don’t care for, opening the door for
invasive species to take over. Deer also may damage young saplings; too many deer means fewer trees survive and mature, hindering forest regeneration.
The deer do have one predator in urban areas: cars. The Ohio State Highway Patrol counted 109,507 deer-involved crashes on Ohio roadways from 2019 to November 2024, including 44 fatal crashes. (Precise collision numbers in communities like Worthington are elusive since only incidents reported to police are counted.)
Other safety issues arise, too, including
tick-borne diseases carried by deer. A more common safety concern centers around aggressive behavior. Sarah Iles Johnston, who has lived in Old Worthington for 24 years, says that in the last eight years or so she has watched deer become more brazen. In addition to eating normally deer-resistant plants like holly and yew bushes, the deer have begun to see Johnston’s driveway as their territory.
Johnston’s grandkids live nearby, and when the children walk over to visit, the deer sometimes stare them down and refuse to move. “My husband or I have to go out and honk the car horn or something to make the deer go away,” she says. The deer also get defensive around Johnston’s small dog. Another Worthington resident, who didn’t want her name used due to the deep divisions over deer, said a buck threw her dog in the air with his antlers.
In recent years, Worthington city manager Robyn Stewart began hearing from more and more residents. “We had a range of complaints,” she says. “Probably the most frequent we heard were complaints about damage to landscaping and the inability to scare the deer away. We also knew that there were some deer-vehicle accidents occurring.”
Communities in northeast Ohio are
ahead of Central Ohio in terms of deer management, Westerfield says. “In the last 15 years, we’ve had plenty of communities in Cuyahoga County and the surrounding counties that have started archery hunting programs and plenty that have started sharpshooting programs,” he says.
Those communities could offer a blueprint. The first, easiest step to begin addressing the deer issue is to enact a no-feeding ordinance, which Worthington did in 2022. (Columbus does not prohibit feeding deer.) “Artificial feeding concentrates the deer. They don’t need artificial feeding sources to survive,” Comer says. “Most people who do it are uneducated about the problems it can create.”
The ordinance didn’t seem to decrease the number of deer, so in November 2023 Worthington formed a Deer Task Force. The task force comprised eight people, including Comer, Worthington’s police chief, residents and former resident Greg Hitzhusen, associate professor of professional practice at Ohio State’s School of Environment and Natural Resources. Hitzhusen also teaches senior capstone classes, which collaborated with Worthington on deer-related projects. One group worked on a deer population index, another researched deer management strategies for homeowners and a third group worked on a community survey that went out in spring 2024 and garnered nearly 4,000 responses.
About 71 percent of survey respondents said they’d like to see the deer population reduced, and 75 percent supported using city funds to do so. A
follow-up survey went into more detail about management options, along with information about various methods. Relocation of deer, for instance, is prohibited in Ohio. Fertility management techniques like surgical sterilization and birth control are expensive and generally ineffective in reducing the number of deer in a herd that can move freely in and out of a community like Worthington. Plus, ODNR allows these methods for research purposes only, not population management.
To put it bluntly: “The only effective way to bring deer numbers down is you have to kill them,” Hitzhusen says.
For lethal methods of deer management, communities often use targeted removal, which refers to professional sharpshooters using firearms on elevated platforms to remove a predetermined number of deer on specific dates at specific times. All shots are logged, and property owner approval is required. An archery program is similar, but instead of sharpshooters, trained and screened bow hunters kill and remove the deer. In both methods, communities typically donate the venison to local food pantries.
There are pros and cons to each. Targeted removal programs typically remove more deer in less time. But it’s more expensive to process the meat and hire contractors (usually USDA Wildlife Services). Archery programs cost less but remove fewer deer via volunteer hunters who process the meat themselves. Archery hunts usually happen in the fall and targeted removal in winter. Some communities use a combination of both methods.
A majority of residents in the second survey supported targeted removal, archery hunting or both, though a significant minority—18 percent—said they prefer no lethal removal. While some Worthington residents expressed safety concerns, Ohio’s safety record for these lethal methods is quite good. Westerfield provided data from 75 Ohio communities with deer management programs, which adds up to a combined 460 program years of lethal removal, and found that not a single resident or vehicle was shot. Three houses were hit, as were two cats and two dogs, though Westerfield noted the pet incidents weren’t accidental but rather bad actors who targeted them intentionally. Hitzhusen says that according to the data, these management programs are safer than golf, and that far more pets are injured by deer than by hunters.
In December 2024, the task force released its report, recommending that Worthington pursue a long-term solution for deer population reduction through targeted removal followed by a combined program of targeted removal and archery hunting, along with ongoing monitoring of the deer population and public sentiment. In January, Worthington City Council voted unanimously to follow the task force’s recommendations. Stewart says the city plans to implement a targeted removal program early next year.
While experts agree that deer populations in many urbanized areas of Ohio will continue to grow without management programs, there’s little agreement on the ideal number of deer per mile.
“The ultimate metric of success is: How many people are complaining that there’s a problem with deer?” Hitzhusen says.
In 2023, more than 200 people attended an informational meeting about deer in Clintonville, just south of Worthington, and since then the conversation has continued online in much the same way Worthington’s polarized chatter played out. At least one Clintonville resident has caused a stir by hunting deer with a bow on his own property, which, according to the Columbus city attorney’s office, is not prohibited (though discharging a firearm within city limits is illegal).
“It doesn’t do a lot of good for Worthington alone” to implement a deer management program, Hitzhusen says. “If Worthington starts shooting arrows at deer, those deer are going to be like, ‘It’s
safer in Clintonville.’ … All these communities are connected.”
Stewart says she had conversations with Columbus Public Health veterinarian Dr. Aaron Messer while the Deer Task Force did its work. “He was interested as to what direction we would go,” she says.
“I’ve had conversations with other communities, too, that want to understand how we’ve been looking at the issue. … They’re watching what we’re doing.”
In June, Columbus City Council and the Department of Neighborhoods partnered to announce “an initiative to examine the impact of the white-tailed deer population in our community.”
After consulting with ODNR and Ohio State’s School of Environment and Natural Resources, the city launched its deer survey, which asked for feedback on potential deer management strategies.
According to Jacob Dilley, legislative aide to councilmember Nancy Day-Achauer, who is leading Columbus’ deer initiative alongside council Presi-
dent Pro Tem Rob Dorans, Worthington’s deer project has been “indispensable” in forming Columbus’ early approach. Dilley says the city’s 311 hotline has been receiving increased amounts of calls related to deer, but Columbus won’t have specific data related to neighborhoods like Clintonville until the survey results are analyzed. “If our survey shows that some form of a deer management program is needed, we will have those conversations with [ODNR] and other relevant city departments,” Dilley says.
Whatever Columbus decides, deer aren’t going away—they’ve been here longer than we have. The name of the Scioto River is said to derive from the Wyandot word “scionto,” which was part of a longer name the Native American tribe used for deer.
“The more communities that are doing something, the more effective it’s going to be,” Comer says, adding: “The best time to start a deer management program was 10 years ago.” ◆

Just five sunburns over your lifetime can double your risk of melanoma. We asked local dermatologists to share tips on how to protect your skin from the sun.
By Virginia Brown
Summer ushers in weekends at the lake, picnics in the park and general fun in the sun. But protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful rays is a yearround effort.
“I encourage healthy, active lifestyles and enjoying the outdoors,” says Dr. Jessica Hoy, a board-certified dermatologist with Signature Dermatology in Lewis Center. “It’s not that we all have to be recluse in our basements, but there are general guidelines we should follow.”
It starts with wearing sunscreen every day. “No matter what you’re doing, even if you don’t lay out in the sun, it’s about [protecting yourself from] cumulative UV exposure,” says Hoy. “It’s not just about when you’re going to be on the water or walking on trails. It should be a daily habit … apply in the morning to all of your exposed areas, even in Ohio, when it’s cloudy many days.”
Dr. Desmond Shipp, a practicing dermatologist and the director of cosmetic dermatology at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, recommends sunscreens with a sun-protection factor, or SPF, of at least 30. “We found that an SPF of 30 will probably block
at least 97 percent of those rays,” he says. And don’t forget often-overlooked places like ears, hands or the tops of your feet, he adds.
“Sun protection factor doesn’t tell you how long you can stay out in the sun, it tells you how long before you burn,” says Shipp. “Make sure that you’re using a broad-spectrum sunscreen that protects against UVA and UVB rays and is water resistant.”
He also recommends wearing breathable, long-sleeve shirts, widebrimmed hats and UV-protective sunglasses. For children 6 months or younger, he suggests avoiding sunscreen since they can more easily absorb it, which can lead to side effects like rashes. “Keep them out of the sun, keep them shaded and wear protective clothing,” Shipp says. For babies, rash guards are best.
If you’re going to be in and out of water or sweating a lot, Shipp recommends applying more frequently. “We generally tell people to make sure that you’re reapplying your sunscreen every two hours, minimum.”
Despite increased awareness and protections, one in five Americans will
develop skin cancer by age 70, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation, and more than two people die from skin cancer in the U.S. every hour.
“I’m very passionate about early detection of skin cancer and prevention,” says Hoy. Her greatest concern is melanoma, a deadly form of skin cancer. “We know that just one blistering sunburn in childhood can double your risk of melanoma skin cancer,” she says. “And five sunburns over your lifetime also can double your risk.”
Unlike other forms of cancer, skin cancer is one you can see. “The most important thing is checking your own skin at home,” says Hoy. “Do a monthly skin check, know where all your spots are, and then if you see anything concerning, or if you notice a spot that’s changing, itching or bleeding, go see a dermatologist.”
Shipp says the rules of sun protection apply to everyone. “I don’t know if the old doctrine has been passed down that skins of color don’t get skin cancers, but that’s completely false, and I want to get rid of that narrative,” he says. “Skin cancer can affect any and everyone, skin of color or not.”
Financial advisers say these mutual funds offer short-term benefits for many investors, with advantages such as lower
By Chuck Nelson
Money market funds may be on the downside of their recent rate peak, but financial advisers still say they can be a great tool for making an investor’s money work harder and smarter.
A money market fund, or MMF, is a type of mutual fund that typically invests in short-term debt securities, cash and equivalents. The investments are considered lower risk, yet they also generally yield lower returns than other options.
MMFs have been around since the 1970s, but they began to attract more consumers when the Federal Reserve began raising its benchmark federal funds rate in 2022 in an effort to tame inflation after the pandemic, according to TheStreet. Those interest-rate bumps were quickly reflected in money market funds, whose assets under management rolled to a record $7 trillion in November, according to the Office of Financial Research, part of the U.S. Treasury Department.
While the funds remain popular, Bloomberg says their yields peaked last summer at around 5 percent and have since dropped. Even so, they continue to draw investors and reached $7.4 trillion in assets in the first quarter of 2025.
“We’re starting to see a transition out
of money market funds as the Fed lowers the rates,” says Peyman Salehi, managing director of wealth and asset management for Central Ohio at Fifth Third Private Bank. That’s likely to continue with more Fed cuts expected in the future, he says. “Unless something happens and the Fed has to raise rates, we don’t see those rates staying where they are.”
Until that happens, experts agree MMFs can still help consumers’ money work a little harder.
“For some folks, it can be a great place to temporarily park some cash, but it really depends on the situation that applies to that family,” says Jeremy Young, regional director of JPMorgan Chase Wealth Management. “Every investor is different in their financial situation. It comes back to what the client or family needs.”
He says the bank’s approach hinges on a client’s personal goals, their timeline for needing the funds, their liquidity or cash needs, and their tolerance level for risk.
According to Fidelity Investments, MMFs can be used for various purposes, including short-term goals or emergencies, or as an off-ramp for portfolio funds during periods of volatility, providing in-
terest income for money that might otherwise earn little or nothing elsewhere.
“In most cases, you don’t use a money market fund as a long-term investment,” Salehi says. “We see them as being a specific tool in the wider array of vehicles we use for investing for our clients.”
Adam Koós, president and senior financial adviser at Libertas Wealth Management Group Inc. in Dublin, says his company uses MMFs when clients move out of securities due to a market downturn “to get a little more bang for our buck while money is waiting for a sunnier day.”
“We tell our clients the first thing you need to do is have an emergency account” to cover expenses for a set period of time. For a household where two people are working, that’s at least three months of expenses, he says; plan on six months for a household with a single earner.
“If you’re retired, we like to call it ‘gunpowder,’ ” Koós says, “because instead of sending our clients a distribution from their accounts to supplement their Social Security or pension income, we’d rather turn off the distribution when the market’s struggling, let the cookies bake, and start taking money from the ‘gunpowder’ account.”

For a retirement account that has a time horizon of 10 years or more, MMFs might not be a great tool, says Jamie Menges, shareholder and senior financial adviser at PDS Planning Inc. in Dublin. But for someone close to retirement who wants to ease out of a volatile stock market, that could be a different story. “Cash is the greatest provider of peace of mind,” he says. “That’s always worth something.”
MMFs are considered low risk due to their underlying investments, especially those that hold government-issued debt. Historically, MMFs maintain a net asset value of $1 per share, Salehi says. But in rare instances, a fund can “break the buck” and lose money, as happened during the 2008 financial crisis.
“Does that mean that there isn’t that black swan event that you or I could never predict? No,” says Koós. “I don’t know what would cause a money market fund to implode temporarily, but I never tell our clients, ‘You can never lose money; it’s impossible.’ ”
As with any investment, there can be tax implications on money market fund earnings, depending on what kind of account they’re held in. “It’s always a great idea to
JAMIE MENGES, shareholder
speak to your tax adviser on any kind of tax obligations,” Young reminds investors. Koós says there are lots of options for money market funds between traditional brokerages like Schwab or Fidelity or those offered through banks. He suggests potential buyers look for three things in addition to the published rate: if the fund requires a minimum investment; if it has to be held for a certain amount of time; and if there are penalties for early withdrawal.
Don’t chase the highest rates without knowing what the fund is holding, Koós says. “Places like MarketWatch or ETF. com will tell you what’s inside that thing,” he says. If a money market fund today is advertising yields at or above 5 percent, “chances are, there’s some riskier stuff in there” than short-term Treasury bills, he says.
Newer investors often are confused about the difference between money market funds and money market ac-
counts. MMFs are investment funds registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, while MMAs are a type of savings account that offers higher interest rates than traditional bank accounts. When offered by a bank, MMAs are insured by the FDIC for up to $250,000 per depositor.
Most of the big commercial brokerages offer their own MMFs, Menges says, making it easier to move funds around in a client’s account. “It’s really liquid in that regard,” he says.
While there’s always some risk of losing money in MMFs, Menges doesn’t believe the exposure is significant. “It’s something we’ve been comfortable with.”
If the Fed were to make rate cuts, money market fund rates would probably follow and drop lower, Salehi says, leading some investors to put those assets to work elsewhere.
“Take advantage of these rates while you can,” Koós says. ◆

A Downtown condo doubles as a personal museum for Shiloh and Dimiter Todorov, reflecting their local roots, travels abroad and friendships through their thoroughly funky art collection.
even years ago, Shiloh and Dimiter Todorov were vacationing in Delray Beach, Florida, when they came across the independent Magnus and Gordon Gallery. They loved the work of artist Magnus Sebastian so much that they tracked him down in person, bought five pieces directly from him and had them shipped to Columbus. Sebastian uses vintage mannequins in most of his work “as they tend to be an idealized expression of the human form,” he explains on his website. He fills them with innards made of the “cast off pieces of technology that we take for granted and discard every day.”
In doing so, Sebastian tries “to show that we are becoming soulless as we
rampantly ingest technology—we still look human but have taken on a colder, more mechanized persona.”
One of the pieces the Todorovs purchased was a sculptural mixed-media piece named “AquaMarie.” Her body— made up of a combination of plastic, metal and electronic parts—strikes a gentle pose as she delicately holds and gazes at a yellow bird. Her exposed inner head reveals wires, plugs and a metal grate.
“We love his whole weird, cyberpunk aesthetic,” Dimiter says.
The piece is symbolic of the “modern, weird and surrealistic” art collection the Todorovs have curated over the years—now on display inside their condominium in the Brunson Building at 145 N. High St. in Downtown
Columbus. They have lived inside the turn-of-the-century building, formerly home to the Brunson Savings and Loan Co. offices, for 10 years.
While the condo may be on the smaller side, at 1,200 square feet, the art collection is expansive. It features local artists, art made by friends and family and pieces from around the world.
Dimiter is a native of Bulgaria and Shiloh grew up in central Nebraska. The two met in the early 1990s when both were studying at Morningside University in Sioux City, Iowa. The couple moved to Central Ohio in 2008 so Dimiter could take a general counsel role at Scotts Miracle-Gro. He’s now the executive vice president, general counsel and corporate secretary. Shiloh is the development and communi-
cations director at nonprofit Families Flourish. They lived in Dublin and the Discovery District before moving to their current home.
“I am a big fan of both traditional and modern-day surrealism and abstract modernism,” Dimiter says. “I’m not sure why, but I suspect that this was a reaction to growing up in communist Bulgaria where ‘socialist realism’ was the predominant art style. Anything to get away from the government-mandated boring art of the time.”
Daniel Ferlan is one of the local artists the couple has been most drawn to. Their home features nine different pieces of his from different periods of his work, including “The Light Through the Mourning” exhibition at the Sharon Weiss Gallery in the Short
North in 2022. A small piece featuring a skull in the Todorovs’ living room is one of their favorites. A Ferlan painting above the living room couch is called “The Monster Who Loves Gin.”
Another featured local artist is Craig Carlisle, who has created a series of heads on large canvases that are deliberately drawn on a scale that will “empower a room,” as he describes on his site. The heads typically are anonymous and genderless. In the open concept kitchen/living room, a “two head” piece named “Together Forever” looks over the space. Another piece called “Vulnerable” features one big head with blue
eyes and pink lips. Both were purchased at the Sharon Weiss Gallery. Carlisle is represented by Sarah Gormley Gallery in Columbus and the George Billis Gallery in New York City and Connecticut. Art is everywhere in the condo, including the master bathroom, which features a dark but tranquil painting by Columbus artist Christopher Burk. It was part of his “Deluge” series at the Brandt Gallery highlighting sunken houses.
Local artist Julie Woodrow’s pink ceramic face and mixed-media piece called “Persistence” also is part of the collection. She is represented by the contem-
porary online gallery Sherrie Gallerie. Southeastern Ohio artist Zachary Dean Jones, whose art was featured this summer at the Marcia Evans Gallery in the Short North, created a mixed-media textured painting that hangs in the couple’s bedroom. Beneath it sits a Japanese antique Choba Tansu chest from the Meji period that was purchased from an antique store in San Francisco.
A meaningful part of the art collection is by Ralph Laporta, a friend and restaurateur from Alexandria, Virginia. He created a figurative painting of mutual friend John Michaels as a gift to Shiloh.
bathroom
“I love it because a friend created it of another friend, and I love cardigans,” she says of the clothing Michaels wears in the painting.
Another fun touch is a horizontal abstract red painting over a bamboo screen in the couple’s bedroom by another Columbus artist—French-born Annette Poitau, represented by the Marcia Evans Gallery. “The whole setup in our bedroom aims for a general Zen vibe,” Dimiter says, referencing a giant Chinese antique scroll that’s also part of the décor.
The home also has a piece of art that Dimiter says is “very dear to my heart.” It is an homage to Wassily Kandinsky’s 1930 painting “Disintegrated Tension,” reimagined as a hand-woven framed tapestry made by his Bulgarian mother, Veselina Todorova. ◆
Sister duo Marek and Temple Miller make fashion and homeware as sustainable as they are personal at the Atomic Shop.
By Lucy Clark
Gone are the days of needing to hunt through bargain bins or navigate labyrinthine antique malls to find the next vintage gem for your home or closet— curated resale shops have done the hard part for customers.
Whether you’re on the hunt for classic vintage decor, a funky tasseled jacket or a fur coat worthy of a Sopranos cameo, you can find it at the Atomic Shop, located in the heart of Clintonville.
Sisters Marek and Temple Miller are hardly secondhand novices. Their mother took part in vintage shopping and curation before the trend swept the internet—and your local Goodwill—by storm. “We all grew up going to flea markets or garage sales ... My mom started it all, really,” Temple says.
The sisters are Columbus natives but moved to the south in 2011, during which time Temple started dipping her toe into the vintage resale market. When they returned to Ohio in 2022, they were ready to dive into the deep end.
They approached Between State, a design company next to what was then Boomerang Room Vintage, and asked if they could use their parking lot space for a miniature market. The Atomic brand was born, as was their popular market series Atomic on High, which has grown exponentially over the past four years, featuring multiple vintage vendors as well as artists, live music, food options and more. They moved into the former Boomerang space in March 2024 after the owners offered it to them when deciding to downsize. Boomerang is now located directly next to Atomic.
If you’ve strolled through Clintonville, you may have noticed the multiple vintage stores in close proximity. This doesn’t create any competition, the sisters say, but instead offers a unique op-
portunity for collaboration and attracting more customers.
“It’s honestly perfect,” says Temple. “The more antique and vintage stores around, the more of that shopper we bring, and it becomes a destination rather than one store.” They also note that the concentration of antique vendors allows them to send their customers across the street if they’re looking for a specific item Atomic doesn’t carry, and vice versa.
Marek lives in Georgia and manages Atomic’s behind-the-scenes affairs, including coming into town regularly to help organize the markets. You’re likely to see Temple on your visit, though even if you miss her, the store closely mirrors her interests and aesthetics.
“Curation wise, I go with my gut,” she says. “There’s no method to the madness.” That aesthetic tends towards eclectic and Americana. The sisters source from customers as well as through travel, and Marek often brings back pieces she finds in Georgia.
3274 N. High St., Clintonville 614-674-6144 theatomicshopcbus.com
Hours: 11 a.m.-6 p.m. daily
If you go: The next Atomic on High will be held Aug. 16 directly next to the Atomic Shop. There will also be markets Sept. 20 and Oct. 18, as well as a collaboration with Understory at 2571 Neil Ave., Old North Columbus, on Aug. 10.
Not only do the sisters tout sustainability in their secondhand stock, but also individuality. “People are treating their bodies more like art,” Temple says. “They want statement pieces that stand out. They want to share who they are with other people. And fashion is the easiest way to translate that.” ◆

A confluence of talent delivers New American cuisine and rich desserts at Three Creeks Kitchen and Cocktails.
By Amy Bodiker Baskes
The buzz reached me first. “Have you heard?” “Have you been?” The anticipated arrival of Three Creeks—a fine dining establishment serving New American cuisine that opened in December in Gahanna—was shared with loads of breathy expectation. In a community crowded with fast-casual outlets, my friends and family on the East Side were understandably eager for someplace creative and different to eat.
Three Creeks Kitchen and Cocktails is the transformation of an O’Toole’s Irish Pub, which shed its chicken wings and television sets in favor of chandeliers and steaks. A team of new owners joined O’Toole’s longtime proprietor Joe Grundey in his remaking the sports bar, including Grundey’s daughter, Payton, who serves as managing director, and Alaina Short, formerly of Wolf’s Ridge Brewing Company, who is Three Creeks’ creative director. The co-executive chefs, Andrew Hillis and Alix Serfaty, are also part of the ownership group and bring deep kitchen experience from previous stints at leading local establishments like Cameron Mitchell Restaurants, the Worthington Inn and Pistacia Vera.
This combined experience is the heart of Three Creeks’ strength—and the meaning behind its name. “Gahanna” is derived from a Native American word that refers to the confluence of three creeks, as happens less than a mile from the restaurant where the Blacklick and Rocky Fork creeks flow into the Big Walnut.
It was crowded and humming in Three Creeks when I visited on a Tuesday evening in late May, the dark walls sparkling with dozens of gilded framed mirrors. The lingering cool weather kept everyone

indoors, and my smoked Old Fashioned ($18) helped ward off my chill. I wistfully eyed the large but empty three-season room and patio nestled among the breezy treetops as the perfect spot for more summery cocktails when warmer temperatures finally arrived.
Ordering the French onion soup ($12) would have been the perfect complement to the weather and my mood, with its comforting caramel broth and bubbling cheese topping. Instead, I opted for the tuna tartar ($19), a molded ring of the minced ruby fish atop a layer of smooth avocado pieces. It’s a classic combination of flavors, but I was thrown a bit by the accompanying fried wontons, which were dusted with a flavorless bright red powder.
Other starters on the Three Creeks menu include shareable options such as the plate of fried pickled onion rings served with a spicy aioli ($16) and the goat cheese spread, broiled in a large ramekin and topped with a compote of warm chopped olives and tomatoes, and served with plenty of housemade crostini ($18). The crab cakes topped with pineapple chutney ($21) and the short rib ravioli served in a broth with caramelized onions and spinach ($19) are substantial and complex enough to serve as small entrées for lighter eaters.
Main courses at Three Creeks feature an assortment of steaks and seafood dishes—and come with the luxe sauces, starchy sides and steep price tags commonly seen at upscale steakhouses. There are a handful of pastas—including
a vegan and shrimp option—and a few sandwiches for those craving carbs and easier price points.
I enjoyed my scallops ($49), which were perfectly seared on one side, and was grateful for the addition of earthy spinach as it countered the richness of the seafood and its accompanying cheesy risotto and lemon butter sauce. My husband’s 14-oz ribeye ($59) was cooked adequately but lacked the flavorful char I associate with a wellmade steak. We hadn’t opted for the enhancers—sauces like bearnaise ($5) or toppings like blue cheese ($6) or mushrooms and onions ($6)—in favor of simpler eating, but maybe these accompaniments would have brought
some oomph to the plate.
Desserts are housemade at Three Creeks and worth the splurge. I had a tough time choosing between the peanut butter pie ($12) and the Basque cheesecake ($12) but ultimately was drawn to the rich brown sugar flavors in the warm cookie butter cake ($11), which resembled a cupcake with its domed scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
With its upscale ingredients and fresh approach, Three Creeks is a welcome break from the monotony of chains Gahanna is known for. While the vibe is one of a neighborhood bistro, the relative newcomer also can be a splurge-worthy date night destination, with its steakhouse-like menu of cuts and accompanying high prices. Ultimately, I might have been happier with less fanciful fare on this fast and casual Tuesday, but recommend Three Creeks as a place to treat yourself. ◆
BJ Lieberman and other Ohio chefs are crafting a meal in collaboration with survivors of human trafficking for Freedom a la Cart’s Eat Up Columbus event.
By Linda Lee Baird
In a building that was formerly a print shop, lives are remade. Women operate a thriving catering business in the basement. The ground floor is home to a popular café. But this isn’t an ordinary business: It’s Freedom a la Cart, staffed by survivors of human trafficking who have joined the organization to rebuild their lives.
Christal, who works with Freedom as a caterer and is not sharing her last name per Freedom’s organizational policy to protect survivors’ identities, says that the hours can be long. “I’ll work 10,
12, 14-hour days. I don’t mind. I love it,” she says.
Freedom a la Cart’s workforce development program supports women in building practical employment skills like learning how to manage schedules, work with a team and stay professional under pressure while completing all orders to client’s satisfaction. The organization’s webpage notes that “these are no easy feats.”
It may be hard work, but Caty, who joined Freedom as a caterer in March, says the organization has made a huge
difference in her life. “Since I walked into this place, they have treated me like family. It’s helped me grow a lot. I’m still healing, but I love coming into work every day because I know that I’m not alone.”
This summer, Freedom is giving Christal, Caty and other women in its workforce development program another opportunity: The chance to tell their stories through food that will be cooked by some of Ohio’s most renowned chefs for the nonprofit’s Eat Up Columbus fundraising event in July.
BJ Lieberman, owner of Chapman’s Eat
Market and Metsi’s, is organizing a fivecourse meal for Eat Up. He not only believes in the cause, but also credits Freedom with shaping his work in Columbus and as a chef. Right before he and his wife Bronwyn Haines moved to Columbus from Washington, D.C., in 2019, Freedom’s executive director Paula Haines—who is Bronwyn’s stepmother— told Lieberman she needed an interim head chef. He stepped into the role.
“We came in hot,” Lieberman recalls. “We got here and day one of being in Columbus was my first day at Freedom a la Cart as the head chef.”
He remembers that day as one that changed his approach to leadership.
“Day one of being in the kitchen with the girls was eye opening for me, and in a ton of ways, it humbled me completely. It was exactly what I needed for my career before I was going to open my own restaurant,” he says.
“I learned infinite patience. I wasn’t a yeller or screamer, but I was one of those chefs that was like, ‘I need it now.’ And working with Freedom a la Cart taught me there was a heck of a lot more to what we were doing.”
This year, Lieberman is giving back to the organization by organizing the meal for Freedom’s fundraising dinner. But he’s not doing it alone. He’s invited chefs Jordan Anthony-Brown of The Aperture in Cincinnati; Vinnie Cimino of Cordelia in Cleveland; Jeni Britton, founder of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams and Floura,
IF YOU GO
Eat Up Columbus 2025 will be held at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, July 26 at St. Charles Preparatory School and feature a five-course dinner organized by chef BJ Lieberman. The fundraiser for Freedom a la Cart is sold out this year, but donations to the organization are welcome at freedomalacart.org/eat-up
and Kate Djupe of Heyacake—both from Columbus—to collaborate on the meal. Each chef partner is responsible for one course that is rooted in survivors’ stories. Lieberman started by asking women working for Freedom about foods that were comforting for them, that they wanted to learn how to cook or that were family recipes. “We’re doing versions of things that were on the list, but we got some really, really cool answers back,” he says. The meal will be inspired both by the women’s responses and the chefs’ expertise.
Caty says she selected a Filipino dish called pancit canton, similar to lo mein, that she ate growing up. It’s the dish Lieberman will cook for the meal. “That was really inspiring to me. I love Southeast Asian food,” he says.
Christal’s dish is inspired by her home, too. She reflected on the pork chops, mashed potatoes, green beans and egg
noodles her mom used to make. “She’s no longer here, so I don’t get it that often. But I do make it for my kids, and they absolutely love it. It’s one of their favorite meals,” she says. Her suggestions are the basis for a southern-style meat and three course that Anthony-Brown will prepare.
Paula Haines is excited to welcome guests to Eat Up Columbus this year. Their support will bolster the organization’s work and impending growth— from serving 357 survivors last year to a projected 500 or more in 2025.
“It’s always very emotional and overwhelming when you have 400 people in a room there to support the work that you’re doing,” Paula says. “It’s a way to show these beautiful ladies that the community’s around them, they’ve got support, that people care. And that what happened to you should not have happened to you, and we stand with you.” ◆

Textile artist Janette Knowles’ studio is a space that’s part international café and part ancient apothecary. Sunlight shining in through windows highlights the jars of dried flowers she uses to create natural dyes for her art. Couches and chairs form what Knowles describes as a “funky little impromptu community center.” She hosts friends and reading clubs in the space.
The studio is two stories and was built three years ago in the backyard of Knowles’ Merion Village home. Her art occupies the second floor, while her husband Sebastian Knowles teaches piano from the first floor.
Much of Knowles’ inspiration comes from growing up on a farm with close ties to the land, the cycles of nature and the idea of not letting anything go to waste. Her artistic approach reflects her vision—all of her dyes come from plants and flowers grown in her garden, and the textiles she works with have been given or donated to her. “Everything you see is
taken out of the waste stream,” she says. “The social practice is as important as the stuff I’m making.”
She views her art, often inspired by nature and climate change, as “drops of goodness” that she can share with the world. ◆
