Be a Community Festival Sponsor or Vendor
|
|
|
|
The Dwell Community Festival is a free, community-wide event drawing 3,000+ attendees each fall — college students, families, and empty nesters coming together for an evening of food, music, kids' activities, and connection. Our goal is to keep it that way: low cost and accessible for everyone.
Sponsorships make that possible. Every dollar raised goes directly toward funding the experiences that make this festival special. If you're a local business looking to reach an engaged, multigenerational Columbus audience while making a genuine impact, we'd love to partner with you. Contact Sherri Fojas at 614.580.2879 or fojass@dwellcc.org to reserve your sponsorship.
The festival is also looking for vendors! New this year, the vendors will enjoy an indoor setup on the Main Cafe side. If you are interested in selling goods, please apply here or email Ann at comfestvendors@gmail.com.
The Community Festival will take place on Aug. 22nd from 4-10 pm.

What Sustains a Lifelong Friendship
|
Abbey Merker interviews Marian Guzzo and Mary Beth Gladwell, friends since age 14 who met at an all-girls Catholic high school and became believers together in the 1970s. They discuss maintaining their friendship across six decades despite living in different cities, raising families separately, and serving in different home churches—meeting weekly for coffee, walks, and prayer even when ministry life didn't overlap.

Faithfulness When Things Keep Getting Worse
|
A devotional from
Ryan Lowery
|
Ryan Lowery continues Joseph's story as he's sold into slavery in Egypt, rises to manage Potiphar's household, refuses sexual advances from Potiphar's wife, and gets falsely accused of rape—landing in prison for doing the right thing. Lowery honestly addresses the gap between God's promises of blessing and Joseph's nightmare circumstances, challenging listeners in long seasons of suffering to hold on and leave the door open for God to come through.
