Wexner Center’s Off The Grid, 2011

Once again, we were covering the photography for The Wexner Center’s yearly event Off The Grid. And just like every year, it was a blast! We went to the pre-party this year, and couldn’t have been more pleased with the decision. Mershon Auditorium was filled with local restaurants, each with their own miniature appetizers to sample. My favorites are Due Amici and Barrio, but there were lots of other great ones! They also redid the performance area bar and made it way easier to move about. The visuals were stunning, as always. It may have been the best year yet, and they managed to raise over $60,000 for their educational programs! Success!!!

Wonderland Floats

Wonderland Float at Franklin Park Conservatory

Friday night from 6-8, people gathered at the Franklin Park Conservatory to donate to Wonderland and make wishes that were set against the beautiful backdrop of the conservatory at night. It was gorgeous and touching, as hundreds wrote their wishes for Wonderland on their balloon, each lit up with a small LED light and anchored by books set aside for recycling. Here’s just one preview of our look at the event.
