State Representative Danny Bubp (R-Lake Waynoka) is urging constituents of the 88th Ohio House District to participate in celebrating the 150th Anniversary of the Ohio Statehouse by sending their “birthday greetings” to Columbus.

Schools, organizations and individuals are being asked to mail or e-mail their birthday cards and digital files in order for the works to be displayed at an open house and artists fair Nov. 15, the day on which the Capitol Building was completed in 1861.

The birthday greetings will become a part of the permanent collection, with plans to display them again at the 200th anniversary of the Statehouse in 2061.

Creativity is encouraged, and greetings can be sent in any manageable size, format or medium. Digital files should be e-mailed by Nov. 10 to 150@csrab.state.oh.us. Mailed greetings must be sent by Nov. 8t to:

Ohio Statehouse 150th Birthday, Ohio Statehouse, 1 Capital Square, Columbus, Ohio 43215.
