To raise awareness about how everything that goes in the storm drain goes right into the river,  FLOW has organized a Stormwater Drain Art Project. Ten local artists are painting around ten storm drains along High Street in the University District. The tour starts at Oakland Avenue and ends at 11th Avenue. Be on the lookout for a tour map soon. Follow us on Instagram, @FlowColumbus and Facebook, Friends of the Lower Olentangy Watershed for updates. This project is funded through The Columbus Foundation and in partnership with The University District Organization.

EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED – video tells FLOW’s story

Thanks to a very generous gift from one of our supporters, FLOW would like to share this video of the Olentangy Watershed and what we can accomplish if we all work together to improve our greenspaces. There is a lot of pressure on our waterways but we can combat impacts if we work in the spaces we control to reduce our 40% turf grass, remove invasive species, plant native herbaceous and woody species and clean up litter. To learn more about what you can do, please see our Greenspace Implementation report.
