Hope Weekend

This month, the Short North Arts District is dedicating Gallery Hop weekend to Rachel. You can support Rachel by participating in all the Hope Weekend events.

Tip Drive
Friday, June 6 through Sunday, June 8
At participating Short North businesses

Through her work at Haiku, Rachel is a family member of both the Short North Arts District and the restaurant community. When you dine at a Short North restaurant this weekend, your server will be donating his or her tip to Rachel’s recovery fund. Some restaurants are even offering to match their servers’ donations.

Artwork Silent Auction
Saturday, June 7 6pm - 10pm
The Art Exchange, 17 E. Brickel St.

Rachel studies art at The Ohio State University and is an active participant in the local arts scene. Rachel's impact on the arts community will be demonstrated through a silent auction of local artist's works. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to Rachel’s recovery fund.

Reflection Area
Saturday, June 7 6pm - 10pm
650 N. High Street (corner of Russell & High)

A storefront on North High Street will be transformed into an elegant showcase of Rachel’s life. This is a place where visitors can reflect, write letters to Rachel, read updates about her recovery progress, and make contributions to her fund.

Benefit Concert
Saturday, June 7 10pm - 11pm
