Milo eLEKtRic, an art-based coffeehouse, will display paintings by Columbus artist Joshua Seligman through July 28.

A reception for him will last from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday. Food will be available after 9.

The venue is a new operation at Milo Arts, the collection of studio spaces at 617 E. 3rd Ave.

Milo eLEKtRic's odd capitalization picks up on the first letter in the first name of each of the four owners: Lisa Hill, Eric Smith, Kimberly Gattozzi and Rick Mann.

"We're trying to cater to all the different art forms: poetry, spoken-word, art, music, dance, comedy," Hill said.

The venue is open from 7 to 10 p.m. Mondays and 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. Fridays.
