The Couchfire Collective is a group of sixteen members who share a common drive to progress as individual artists, develop as a collective, and to raise the profile of Columbus' creative community. Our mission is to provide artists and art patrons with diverse opportunities to make connections and become active participants in the local arts scene.

We advocate collaboration and communication between individuals, groups, and professional organizations who have a mutual interest in the arts. By positioning ourselves as enthusiastic innovators, we work to promote awareness of the artistic community as an essential component of civic development.
