Spinelli’s Deli, in partnership with Stonewall Columbus, will host the third annual Pride Art Show at Spinelli’s Deli in June and July. The show features pieces by painter and multimedia artist Matt Honie, glass blower Jack Pine, and photographer Matt Vant.

The Pride Art Show opening reception takes place on Thursday, June 13 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. with free food and beverages. A deejay will spin dance music. The exhibit, which is an official event of Columbus Pride, will be on display through the end of July.

“The Pride Art Show gives gay artists an opportunity to share their creative work in an open and accepting place,” said Joe Spinelli, president/owner of Spinelli’s Deli.

The Columbus Pride Parade begins at 12:00 p.m. on June 22 and will march through downtown and the Short North. The theme of this year’s Columbus Pride events is “Pride Changes Lives.”
