Excerpted from Columbus Dispatch, March 25, 2026, Amanda Bayo - A monument honoring women's contributions to Ohio history moved a step closer to reality on March 25 as state leaders, supporters and artists gathered at the Ohio Statehouse for a ceremonial groundbreaking.
The Ohio Women's Monument, planned for the Statehouse's South Plaza, has been 7 years in the making and is expected to be completed by fall. Leaders involved in this development say the project aims to address a long-standing gap in how women are represented in public spaces.
