BAM UnderCurrent

May 15, 2025
5:00–9:00 PM


Event located at the corner of Gay and High Street.

BAM Thursdays (Bar, Art, and Music) are back—and we’re kicking things off with a special Downtown edition!

We’re bringing the energy of BAM to the heart of the city as part of the UnderCurrent event series. Join us for a one-night-only experience under Janet Echelman’s sky-high sculpture at the corner of Gay and High Street on Thursday, May 15 from 5:00–9:00 PM. Enjoy live music, creative art experiences, and more—all in the open air of downtown Columbus. Admission is free! Street parking is available in the area as well as nearby garages.

In the event of inclement weather, BAM UnderCurrent will take place the day after on Friday, May 16.

Then, starting May 29, head to the Columbus Museum of Art every Thursday through September 25. Experience live music, great art, delicious bites, creative experiences, and fresh libations in the museum’s garden space—with extended hours and free general admission from 5:00–10:00 PM.

UnderCurrent was developed by Downtown Columbus, Inc. to expand the diversity of events offered downtown, bringing together community members and enhancing the district’s cultural vibrancy beneath the uniting emblem of Current.
