In 1974, something green and hairy was spotted in Columbus’s Mill Race Park. The story made the local papers, captured imaginations, and quietly became part of the city’s folklore. Now that legend returns as the Mill Race Monster Festival—a three-day celebration of art, storytelling, and delightfully strange creativity.
Through installations, performances, and hands-on experiences created by local artists, the park transforms into a living legend.
