Description

 The Capitol Square Review and Advisory Board will unveil a new exhibit at the Ohio Statehouse titled “Honoring Ohioans.” The unveiling will take place Monday, November 10 at 10 a.m. in the Museum Gallery of the Ohio Statehouse. The event is free and open to the public.

 

The Honoring Ohioans exhibit chronicles all Ohio Medal of Honor recipients and highlights the men and women of America’s armed forces. At the heart of the new exhibit is the “magic book” interactive display. The magic book tells the unique stories of heroism and sacrifice to the visitor through the book’s pages—it’s a book that acts like a movie that the visitor controls. Additional exhibit pieces include a presentation of two Medals of Honor and a searchable kiosk where visitors are able look up Ohio Medal of Honor recipients by various categories.
