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. Named sponsorships are one per element and go quickly — reach out early to secure your preferred option.
There are three ways to sponsor the festival. Choose the path that fits your business best.
Path One
Named sponsorships give your business exclusive ownership of a signature festival element. Your name goes on it — literally. Attendees will see your business name at one of the festival's most-visited destinations, and you'll be recognized verbally during the event.
All named sponsors receive:
The heart of the family experience. The Kids Zone features inflatables and hours of non-stop activity for children of all ages. Families spend more time here than anywhere else at the festival — making this our highest-visibility naming opportunity.
The social hub of the evening. The beer truck draws a steady crowd of adults throughout the night and is one of the most photographed spots at the festival. A natural fit for a local business looking to reach an adult audience in a relaxed, community setting.
One of the festival's most talked-about attractions. Crowds gather, cheer, and linger — giving your business sustained, high-energy visibility in one of the liveliest corners of the festival.
A beloved tradition that draws families back year after year. The petting zoo creates genuine moments of joy and is a natural gathering point for parents and young children. A memorable sponsorship for any family-friendly business.
Every child walking away with a balloon or a painted face is a reminder of what your business made happen. A meaningful and highly visible way to invest in the community.
Path Two
A strong showing for businesses that want broad festival visibility.
Path Three
A great entry point for businesses that want to show up for the community.
