Introducing CCAD & Columbus

Life at CCAD, CCAD & Columbus Art Sign Blog

Columbus College of Art & Design loves Columbus.

It's a smart and open city where you can make your art and design — and make a difference.

We wanted to show off how awesome our hometown is. So, we turned to the CCAD Student Agency — a group of CCAD student photographers, videographers, illustrators, and designers paid to create work for CCAD and real-world companies — to help tell the story of the thriving creative economy in Columbus, Ohio.
