About Wexner Center For The Arts

Welcome to the Wexner Center for the Arts, a multidisciplinary arts hub on the Ohio State University campus in Columbus. A hub for galleries, the Film/Video Theater, the Performance Space, and the Mershon Auditorium, the Wexner Center hosts contemporary art exhibitions, film screenings, live performances, and special events year-round. We provide reliable, straightforward ticket access, campus parking options, easy transit, and nearby lodging and dining to keep your visit simple and enjoyable.

Whether you’re planning a night at the Mershon Auditorium’s grand capacity, an intimate Performance Space show, or a film night in the Film/Video Theater, secure your seats with us for a smooth, no-fuss experience. We’ll share venue details, seating layouts, and practical tips to help you plan your visit to Columbus’s on-campus arts hub.

Parking is convenient at campus garages with nearby validation: CampusParc offers parking for Wexner Center events, validated at the Visitor Desk or the Mershon box office. For transit, you can ride direct COTA routes to campus or use OSU’s Campus Area Bus Service (CABS) for free campus transport.

We can help connect you with partner stays and dining options for a complete visit.
