hUmAn Connection Festival

Upper Arlington Schools invites you to be part of the 2024 hUmAn Connection Festival, a two-day event celebrating the diverse experiences and perspectives that make our community unique. Started last year at Upper Arlington High School, the hUmAn Connection Festival celebrates culture, inclusion and understanding and supports new connections within and beyond our community.


Please join us on the evening of March 6 at Upper Arlington High School, 1625 Zollinger Road, for a community-wide event featuring:


  • 6 to 7 p.m.: hUmAn Connection Festival exhibit gallery on Golden Bear Boulevard

  • 7 to 8 p.m.: an interactive and inclusive performance by Columbus Jazz Arts Group in the performing arts center


The festivities will continue the following day for high school students.


We are currently seeking school or community groups interested in hosting an interactive exhibit / table for the event. If you would like to be part of the hUmAn Connection Festival exhibit gallery, please complete this form by February 16, 2024. We will confirm completed registrations on February 23, 2024.


The hUmAn Connection Festival is offered by Upper Arlington Schools with support from the Upper Arlington Community Relations Committee and Upper Arlington Education Foundation.
