We had the good fortune of connecting with Jonathan Johnson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jonathan, what’s your definition for success?
I Define Success As Accomplishing Your Goals That You Set Out For Yourself. No Matter How Major Or Minor, As Long As You Accomplish Your Goal Thats A Success In My Book.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
As A Creative, My Strength Is Connection! I Love Being Able To Experience Art In All Forms While Introducing People To Different Artistic Practices. The Creative World Is So Interesting And Immersive So Im Always Learning

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Eating At Hoyos In North Market … EASY

I Dont Drink But I’ll Probably Take Em To An A6 Event For Music Drinks And A Good Time!

Visit The Short North And Check Out Some Galleries Or Go To Olde North Arcade On Some Chill Timing

Obviously Check Out The Infamous Soleclassics To Shop

And Studio35 For A Movie Probably!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I Wanna Dedicate My Shoutout To Everyone Ive Interacted With Throughout This Process That Has Supported,Given Me A Chance Or Trusted Me To Show And Prove. (My Family,Soleclassics,Columbus Fashion Alliance,My Community And Friends From All Over And So Many More Its Too Many To Name Lol).

With No Educational Background Or Backup Plan, All I Had To Offer Was Hard Consistent Work And A Creative Mind. It Has Taken Me A Long Way And Feels Like Its Only The Start.
