Dublin • April 7, 2025
Good morning, Dublin. Five-time Grammy winner Brandon Lake is about to make waves in Columbus with his massive "King of Hearts" arena tour hitting the Schottenstein Center next October. The ambitious 48-city journey across North America arrives just as fellow entertainer and Ohio native Katt Williams brings his "Heaven on Earth Tour" to Nationwide Arena this September. Both events promise to draw impressive crowds, with tickets dropping in the coming weeks for fans eager to secure their spots.
Meanwhile, amid Earth Month celebrations, environmental initiatives are finding creative ways to thrive despite challenges. When Green Columbus lost $75,000 in federal funding due to budget cuts, Columbus City Council stepped in with $40,000 to help fund over 13,000 trees for community projects. The organization still plans to grow 3,000 trees in their Linden nursery for free distribution this fall—proving that even when financial roots are cut, community support helps green dreams flourish.

🎵 Grammy winner Brandon Lake brings massive arena tour to Columbus. The Christian worship singer's "King of Hearts" tour will stop at the Schottenstein Center on October 12, 2025. Tickets go on sale April 24 via Ticketmaster, coinciding with Lake's new album release in June. The ambitious 48-city tour kicks off in Florida on October 2 and continues through May 2026, taking the five-time Grammy winner across North America.
🌳 Federal budget cuts leave green initiatives gasping for air this Earth Month. Green Columbus, a nonprofit focused on sustainability, lost a $75,000 reimbursement from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources due to frozen U.S. Forest Service grants. The organization was unable to plant as many trees as planned, devastating local environmental enthusiasts like Laura Sanders. Fortunately, Columbus City Council stepped in with $40,000 to help fund over 13,000 trees for community projects. Despite the setback, Green Columbus will grow 3,000 trees in their Linden Tree nursery to distribute for free this fall.
