The Gay Ohio History Initiative [GOHI] is seeking public input to identify the people, places, events and organizations important to the history of Ohio’s GLBT community so that our history across Ohio can be commemorated with permanent historical markers. 

“Ohio’s GLBT history is filled with struggles and triumphs that are worthy of celebration, preservation and permanent commemoration,” Robert Berger, GOHI President said.  

In order to advance this statewide project GOHI is asking for public assistance in two ways:

• Suggestions for who should serve on a Statewide GLBT Historical Marker Committee.
• Nominations of people, places, events and organizations to be considered for commemoration with a historical marker.               

Questions, input and suggestions can be sent to thurber1961@aol.com, submitted on the GOHI website at www.gohi.org or mailed to GOHI, c/o OHS, 1982 Velma Avenue, Columbus, OH 43211.
