The Fort, Columbus

Farewell to Dylan, The Fort’s creative director.

Dylan and Drew Collins (bondcolumbus.com) worked with Justin McAllister to name The Fort in 2018. Since then, Dylan designed and developed the brand from his Menges Design studio at 2000 South High.

In his words: “When we talk about The Fort, it’s about the buildings—truly unique spaces. But the best part of The Fort is the people. I stayed here longer than I expected to be with the makers who bring their good energy to this place every day.”

Dylan and Janet have moved out of Columbus, and he will focus on BibleProject.com and a special project called Future Astronauts.
