Switchboard Art Gallery
Welcome to the Switchboard Gallery, a place for artists to connect, create, and collaborate!
The Switchboard has quickly become the local art hub of Columbia and it's our goal to provide as many opportunities as possible to the local arts community.
The gallery is always open during Columbia Kettle Works hours and patrons are encouraged to bring up their drinks to check out the new work each month!

Open Figure Drawing
The Switchboard is home to Open Figure Drawing here in Columbia on the second and 4th Thursdays of every month from 6-9PM.
Darren Jordan will be organizing and hosting these sessions so please direct all inquiries his way!
Artists are encouraged to bring their own art supplies and easels. Beer from the brewery downstairs always welcome.
$10 Cover
Elevator access through brewery.
For the off weeks that we don't have sessions in studio, (1st and 3rd Thursdays) artists are welcome to join Miss A at Hell in a Bucket Brewery in Marietta. Starting at 7PM, Bjorn Jacobsen hosts Open Mic with a very talented crew of local musicians that make for great models and quick figural sketches. The movement, speed, and music keep your brain from getting too caught up in little things.
Music and Art are developed in the same portion of the brain, it's always great to find ways to mesh the two. Get in the zone with other creatives!
See y'all very soon!
