It’s the weekend, but probably the best thing you can do this weekend is stay home. Are events cancelled? Some are. Please make sure you check any events before you go to make sure they are still happening. While we have updated much of the event calendar, there will be last minute cancellations that we will not know about because of COVID-19 in Columbus. In the interest of public safety, CU has decided to cancel the Healthy Living Festival.
