HEALTH
Leaving Falls in Autumn Risks for winter fall injuries and preventative measures to boost strength and balance By Jane Dimel Photos courtesy of Diy13/iStock and Orthopedic ONE
NAVIGATING BLACK ice in parking lots,
climbing ladders to decorate for the holidays and carrying heavy items into the house can pose risks in the winter. As individuals age, muscles decline with disuse, leaving those over 65 particularly vulnerable to falls, says Dr. Kevin Smidt, an orthopedic surgeon at Orthopedic ONE who specializes in hip and knee reconstruction. “People don’t fall all of a sudden because they turn 65,” Smidt says. “(For younger people), our body is able to react and brace ourselves to catch ourselves, and so as we get older and we lose those things – the balance, coordination, strength, endurance – that same person isn’t able to catch themselves. Dr. Kevin Smidt That’s how they fall and that’s how they get injured.” With this in mind, there are measures to be taken to reduce the chance of a fall and improve your health in the process. Knowing the risk The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 1 in 10 falls for older adults, the highest risk group, result in an injury that requires restricted activity and medical intervention. The most common injuries are wrist fractures, Smidt says, but other injuries may include compression fractures in the spine, shoulder or hip fractures, or rotator cuff tears.

cityscenecolumbus.com | November/December 2026
Beyond seasonal considerations – weather changes, holiday decorating and gifts strewn around – and year-round cautions including rugs, wandering pets and poorly-lit pathways, past fractures are the biggest risk for a fracture due to previous bone weakness, Smidt says. “In that age group, making sure you’re keeping up with your bone health (is important),” he says. “(Talk) with your primary care (doctor) about whether or not you need a bone scan to look at your bone health and your bone quality.” Additional considerations can vary by individual. Smidt notes that certain medications – such as those meant to help with blood pressure, anxiety and depression – can increase risk, as can compounded illnesses including osteoporosis. Taking one step at a time Smidt’s primary advice for his patients is to be wary of their movement in the first and last 10 feet of a trip, as that is when most falls happen.
“I really try to emphasize to my patients what I call the transition zone. That’s moving from one place to another, getting in and out of the car, the first step out of your house or down the stairs,” he says. “We tend to focus on the middle part, but not the transition zone.” Breaking out of autopilot in these moments helps increase safety. It makes you more aware and in tune with your body and surroundings, Smidt says, so you can plan for harder-to-see dangers such as black ice. To maintain balance, Smidt recommends wearing shoes with good tread and using the penguin walking method: short steps with feet spread wide, weight shifted in front of you or centered, with at least one hand free to distribute balance, mimicking a penguin’s waddle. More trips to and from transitional zones with intentional precaution are often preferable to fewer trips, he says. “We (tend to) want to take as few trips as possible, but when you have your
hands tied up and you don’t have visualization of where you’re walking or stepping, that’s a big risk,” he says. “I would recommend – for (carrying) groceries, laundry, a child, anything, really – just have one hand free and make sure you look where you’re walking to avoid any fall.” Assessing for treatment Following a fall, Smidt recommends taking a couple of seconds to process and scan for any pain before trying to stand to assess for injury. Seek immediate care if there’s loss of consciousness; pain in your head or neck; broken skin, deformity and/or bleeding; or intolerance to walking or bearing weight. Also visit urgent care if you have any pain on contact, particularly in the wrist. If there is some pain but bearing weight is tolerable, Smidt says, the best course of action is to monitor the injury closely for the next 24-48 hours. Utilize the R.I.C.E. method – rest, ice the site, use compression such as Ace wrap or tight clothes on any swelling, and elevate the injured site above the heart to decrease swelling – and keep monitoring. Regardless of whether the injury seems fully healed, it’s important to notify your primary care doctor or physician to monitor any injuries and document recurrences or chance of injury, Smidt says.

Season’s Drinkings Get into the holiday spirit with festive Columbus pop-up bars By Ella Jay Photo courtesy of Cordial Cocktail Club & Bottle Shop, Huli Huli Tiki Lounge, The Citizens Trust and Visit Dublin, Ohio
WHAT BETTER WAY to escape the cold and get into the holiday spirit than with a cup of cheer? Columbus restaurants and bars are celebrating the season with a bit of merry mixology and halls decked with overthe-top decor. Whether your preferred festive flair looks like sipping spiked hot chocolate inside a heated igloo, sharing shimmery cocktails with friends amid a winter wonderland or enjoying a craft brew alongside some family fun, these local pop-ups are ready to make your holiday season merry and bright.
Miracle Pop-Up at The Citizens Trust
11 W. Gay St. Miracle transforms the Citizens Trust in downtown Columbus into a kitschy Christmas escape filled with colorful lights, nostalgic decor and plenty of seasonal spirits. The pop-up puts a holiday twist on cocktail classics to create a lineup of signature drinks such as the Christmapolitan and Snowball Old-Fashioned. Non-alcoholic options such as the Espresso Claus and Cranberry Reindeer Mule are available as well. The internationally recognized Miracle serves each cocktail in festive glassware, making the experience as much about the aesthetics as the drinks themselves.
Holiday Bar & Wintergarden at Land-Grant Brewing Company
424 W. Town St. Land-Grant Brewing Company brings its Wintergarden back to Franklinton for another season of wintry fun for the whole family. Returning Nov. 27, the seasonal experience surrounds guests with heated igloos, on-site food trucks and cold-weather activities such as icy bumper cars, puck-putt and curling with miniature kegs. Inside the decked-out taproom and bar, those looking to indulge can find seasonal craft beers such as the company’s Tree Lot, Tinsel, Beard Crumbs and Hop Miser.

cityscenecolumbus.com | November/December 2026
237 King Ave. This Victorian Village favorite, officially renamed Cordial Cocktail Club
& Bottle Shop earlier this year, undergoes a unique transformation for the holiday season – kicking it all the way back to the 19th century with its Scrooge-themed pop-up. Inspired by A Christmas Carol, the shop embraces Victorian-era decor, moody lighting and period-accurate cocktails that channel the ghosts of Christmases past. Guests can try everything from Smoking Bishop, a Victorian mulled wine, to London Fog Milk Punch, made with vodka, gin, Earl Grey tea, lemon, lavender and honey.
Huli Holidays at Huli Huli Tiki Lounge
26 W. Olentangy St., Powell “Mele Kalikimaka” is preferred to “Merry Christmas” at Huli Huli Tiki Lounge during the tiki bar’s annual holiday transformation, for which its tropical surroundings get a festive boost that makes for a decidedly warmer take on winter. Colorful lights and Hawaiian decor fill the cozy space while its cocktail menu adopts seasonal flavors, from Thai Tea Eggnog and Holiday Mai Tais to returning favorite She Wrapped Up Her Damn Cat, a warm bourbon- and citrus-based drink that nods to National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.

Opening Credits Buckeye State boosters see Ohio’s reputation rise in the world of film By Garth Bishop Photo courtesy of Ohio Goes to the Movies and Jennifer Schaaf Photography
OHIOANS ARE GENERALLY aware of the
state’s most memorable contributions to the film industry, but interest in filming locally has steadily grown from Hollywood and independent productions alike in recent years. Molly Kreuzman, program director of Ohio Goes to the Movies, points to the Cincinnati and Cleveland film commissions, as well as local directors and creatives returning to Ohio, as signs of the state’s momentum. New tax credits offered by the state of Ohio and the city of Columbus through the Ohio Motion Picture Tax Credit and Columbus Motion Picture Incentive also contribute to the film boom. Filming in Columbus grew 22 percent from 2024 to 2025, with economic impact over those two years totaling about $20 million. “With this local incentive … we’re starting to see some real growth over the last couple of years,” Film Columbus Director John Daugherty says. Cinematic Columbus Though Columbus’ skyline may not be as camera-ready as those of Cleveland and Cincinnati, its central loca-
Director Jon Osbeck
tion and proximity to scenic areas such as Hocking Hills makes it a great base of operations, says Daugherty. Projects this year have included two features shot simultaneously in March: fantasy dramedy Outside of Cleveland directed by Columbus native Colin West and indie horror movie NightFlirt. That’s in addition to a Nickelodeon children’s variety series, an A&E reality series and an independent anime series. Jon Osbeck, a short-film-turned-feature film director and longtime Columbus resident, says he has long been impressed by the dedication of his fellow local filmmakers. “There’s a really great, robust community of filmmakers in Columbus, and I feel like people are starting to become more and more aware of it now,” he says.
The Holland Theatre in Bellefontaine hosted a screening of locally-filmed Union County, featuring a local rehab program and its participants.
10 cityscenecolumbus.com | November/December 2026
Ohio on screen The history of American film is filled with connections to the Buckeye State, Kreuzman says, including a long list of film luminaries who were born here as well as scenes shot in locations such as the
Ohio State Reformatory and downtown Cleveland. “I honestly believe that, after California, Ohio has probably had more to do with the motion picture industry than any other state in the country,” Kreuzman says. Daugherty and Kreuzman emphasize the importance of productions’ impact on the economy: not just the money they spend on sets and studios, but the local crew members they pay. “Making movies in Ohio is not just about art; it’s also about commerce,” Kreuzman says. “It brings a lot of money into the state. It employs a lot of people at living wages.” CS Garth Bishop is a contributing editor at CityScene Media Group. Feedback welcome at feedback@cityscenemediagroup.com.

Keep Your Home Protected While You’re Away Enjoy your vacation worry-free By Antonia Campbell Photos courtesy of Google Home and Ring
W
hether you’re visiting family for the weekend or going on a week-long tropical getaway, it’s crucial you prepare your home for your departure before taking a vacation. While home break-ins are more common in the summer months, property crime is still reported in Columbus during the winter. And crime isn’t the only concern. Winter brings severe weather that can damage homes. Pipe freezes, roof leaks and fallen tree limbs are all more likely during winter months. Meanwhile, thunderstorms in spring and summer months can cause fallen tree limbs, power outages and more. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to protect your home while you’re away – not only during the holiday season, but year-round.
The Google Home app allows users to monitor their home through their Google Nest while miles away.
16 cityscenecolumbus.com | November/December 2026
Home watch services Community members can utilize local home watch services to look after their homes while they’re away: Tri-Village Home Watch is a professional home watch service that serves Upper Arlington, Grandview Heights, Marble Cliff, Bexley, Worthington and Dublin. Its services include inspecting houses after storms, checking for plumbing issues, bringing mail inside and home watch visits while you’re away. Home Watch Columbus covers Upper Arlington, Worthington, Westerville, Grandview Heights, New Albany, Dublin and Galena. The company provides home watch inspections, key holder services, bank and attorney services, vehicle start-ups and more. National Property Inspections works in Columbus, Pickerington, Reynoldsburg, Canal Winchester and surrounding areas. Its services include, but are not limited to, securing doors and windows, checking for signs of forced entry, testing motion sensors, checking for weather damage and bringing mail inside. Smart home and alarm systems With the rise of smart doorbells and alarm systems in recent years, there is a plethora of options for securing your home using technology. Amazon’s Ring and Google Nest dominate the smart home market with a wide range of devices. Both companies have their own ecosystems that make it possible to monitor multiple areas of the home on just one app. Google and Ring smart home products include indoor and outdoor cameras, doorbells that can detect when packages
Ring offers smart doorbells with night vision, live view and more.
are delivered and smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, all monitored through their respective apps. Google also carries thermostats and door locks, while Ring offers door, window and glass break sensors, as well as neighborhood feeds to interact with people in the area. DIY quick tips Beyond home watch services and smart home devices, there are more traditional ways to keep your home protected while you’re away. To avoid break-ins, leave a car in the driveway to make your home appear occupied, remove spare keys from hidden spots and have a trusted neighbor or friend check on your home every few days. To avoid maintenance issues, unplug all nonessential electronics before departure, consider shutting off your main water valve to prevent major leaks and adjust your thermostat: up seven to 10 degrees in the summer, down seven to 10 degrees in the winter.

It’s Never Too Late
Local seniors take part in Senior Esports USA competition By Antonia Campbell Photo courtesy of Tolana Tucker
W
hen Pamela Shields was a girl, she never thought it was possible to play sports. “Back in the ’50s and ’60s, girls did not play sports,” Shields says. “All of my brothers were extremely talented and gifted in sports … and I was never able to do that, so I gave up on that dream.” Now, at 72 years old, she is representing the U.S. in the 2026 Global Esports Games in Los Angeles in December, alongside 11 other Columbus seniors. The team is competing against Belgium’s senior team in a competition of Rocket League, a multiplayer video game that combines soccer with rocketpowered cars. The team was formed after local sports medicine and brain injury specialist Melita Moore brought senior gaming days to Game Arena, a gaming hall and restaurant located in the Gateway – University District, in collaboration with Franklin County’s Office on Aging. “We had an opportunity to talk to the Franklin County Board of Commissioners, and they asked, ‘What can we do for the Office on Aging agency?’” Moore says. “At that time in 2024, the U.S. Surgeon General had just announced this epidemic of isolation and loneliness in America … I know, with gaming, it is about people being connected, having a community and a sense of belonging … so we thought it would be something good to try.” Moore, who is also vice president of the Global Esports Federation, hosts the weekly senior gaming days through her signature program, LevelUpLand. After seeing the success of the weekly event, she offered up the idea of the seniors participating in the global tournament.
Pamela Shields and her Senior Esports USA team members receive their jerseys on draft day.
Shields got involved with the Franklin County Office on Aging when she retired in 2018. The office came to her with a new initiative in 2024, and that’s when she met Moore and learned about the benefits of gaming for seniors. “I went to Game Arena, and that is where I was basically tutored to see how the gaming worked,” Shields says. “But the intriguing part … was the fact that this was gaming that had been scientifically and medically developed to foundationally capture what this does with hand and eye coordination, and the possibilities of reducing Alzheimer’s and dementia. Now you’ve got my attention.” The gaming program helps seniors reframe their brains, Moore says, keeping them mentally sharp and encouraging them to connect with others, which benefits cognitive health. “When you identify as lonely or socially isolated, you have a 50 percent increased risk of dementia, an increased risk of premature death, increased risk
of high blood pressure and heart disease,” Moore says. “So we’re using connection as medicine to help decrease some of these cardiovascular diseases. The other side is it helps with hand and eye coordination. That in itself helps to reduce falls, which are one of the top causes of death in this demographic.” Shields is most looking forward to meeting her competition in Los Angeles and connecting with them over their shared experiences as senior gamers. “Their seniors are being trained just like we are,” Shields says. “We have a special plan where … we’re on special diets, have to sleep so many hours, rest so many hours throughout the day, keep our activities going, doing chair exercises and walking. We have to do the rigor of being an athlete, but it’s modified for senior citizens.” CS Antonia Campbell is an editorial assistant at CityScene Media Group.

Active While Aging
Welcoming cross-generational relationships and activities By Taylor Stumbaugh Photo courtesy of Brian Romey – Walk with a Doc
S
ocial isolation poses just as much health risk as smoking and obesity, especially among older residents, according to the Mayo Clinic. Staying socially connected, eating well and keeping physically active are just a few of the ways to slow down the aging process. Columbus offers a range of opportunities for its older population to adopt this lifestyle. Staying active together Cardiologist David Sabgir started Walk with a Doc in 2005 as a way to encourage his patients to get out of the house and move more. What started as a way to organize group walks around central Ohio has blossomed into a program that hosts walks all around the country that are open to the public and centered around different health topics. These walks can be an outlet for older adults to find a renewed purpose and self-worth in life while younger people gain emotional support and guidance. For a more active challenge, pickleball has surged in popularity across the country. While older generations have been playing for years, younger players have recently started picking up paddles. This intergenerational mix allows for double teams that span generations and an opportunity for a range of age groups to compete against one another. Head to downtown Columbus or find a court in local communities such as Dublin, Westerville, Grove City, New Albany and Grandview Heights. Reconnecting with hobbies Historically, mahjong has been popular in retirement communities and assisted living facilities, but not so much in 18 cityscenecolumbus.com | November/December 2026

dorm rooms and coffee shops. In recent years, the game has spread across generations, connecting ages through the game of matching, strategy and memorization. Columbus is filled with mahjong clubs – such as Rainbow Mahjong League at Club Diversity and Riichi Mahjong Columbus at Game Arena – and Columbus Mahjong Social, which includes league play along with lessons and open events. If board games aren’t your style, Columbus has a surplus of book clubs such as Columbus Bookworms and the seven different genre-specific clubs at Prologue Bookshop in the Short North. Those with green thumbs can also check out gardening classes at the Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, where all ages are welcome to grow together. Learning alongside others Since 1974, The Ohio State University has offered Program 60, through which Ohio residents 60 and older can audit courses through the university tuition-free. From 2018 onwards, approximately 225 Ohioans have taken classes each se-
mester, and the number of requests for the program in 2025 almost doubled. Program 60 helps older students delay aging effects on the brain while also helping build a weekly routine outside of their home. Stepping out of your comfort zone The Columbus Recreation and Parks hosts Sixty Plus Programming, using seven community centers around the city as social hubs for fitness, arts and crafts, tech assistance and more. These professional-taught classes hone fine motor skills through activities such as beading, crocheting and painting. The wellness classes offer a range of exercise options, from basketball and boxing to line dancing and general stretching, while special interest classes cater to hobbies intended to bring people together. Participants can learn new board games, chat about books or learn sign language. CS Taylor Stumbaugh is an editorial assistant at CityScene Media Group.

Fish Out of Water Creator Ayuka Shichinohe finds inspiration under the sea By Taylor Stumbaugh Photo courtesy of Ayuka Shichinohe and the Columbus College of Art and Design
AYUKA SHICHINOHE’S TINY apartment looks a little like a craft store. Bolts of fabric line the walls, a sewing machine occupies one corner and an art station fills another. These materials are essential to her artistic brainchild: fish with legs.
Creating a character Shichinohe began drawing and painting in middle school, eventually studying graphic design at Columbus College of Art and Design, where the fish with legs first came to life. The character started as a joke in one of her graphic design classes because she thought it was unfair that cats and dogs could go on walks, but her pet fish couldn’t.
“He was just stuck in his tiny little tank in my dorm room,” Shichinohe says. “So I created this character that is a fish with humanized legs, and his story is that he just wanted to discover land.” She started to incorporate it into other projects for class. When she sewed a plushie version of it for her professor, each of her classmates in the roughly 20-person class wanted one as well, and fish with legs took off. 24 cityscenecolumbus.com | November/December 2026
Shichinohe creates about 430 plushies a year, which is about eight a week, ranging from $8 to $55. “Design is more for the people, while art is more for yourself, and I get to combine those two, especially in the fish,” Shichinohe says. Finding inspiration Shichinohe’s Japanese heritage heavily influences her art through her culture’s relationship with food, she says, an idea she explores by painting sea creatures. “It makes you respect where the food is coming from and what you’re about to consume,” she says. “I really wanted to portray that (in my art), where that’s not so prominent in America.” Since moving from Huntsville, Alabama to Columbus in 2023, she has explored these ideas through a variety of art installations. Shichinohe participated twice in Urban Scrawl, a street art festival hosted by the Franklinton Arts District at which artists can paint live. She’s also embroidered fish patches at the Columbus Museum of Art during its Thursday BAM event, painted lobsters at the Creekside Blues and Jazz Festival in Gahanna, and painted shrimp and other sea creatures on a red trash receptacle at the Pearl Alley Jam. In 2023. her piece Best By won fan favorite and artist favorite at Urban Scrawl. It was a reflection on how there’s always a
timeframe for when things are considered “best,” she says. The concept pertains to fish, food and even art, but the impact lasts after the expiration date, according to one of Shichinohe’s Instagram posts. “I try to look around (and) see what kind of community I can be a part of through art,” Shichinohe says, “and show what artists can do, and how colorful Columbus can be.” Now she commits to one or two mural gigs throughout the year to focus her attention on a bigger project. Shichinohe and her partner, Jay Hubbard, are creating a children’s book using her fish with legs characters, scheduled to publish in summer 2027.
