    This exhibit showcases the placement of the statue of Unitarian Minister Thomas Starr King on the second floor landing of the historic Capitol building. Thomas Starr King was described as “a tower of strength to the cause of his country” by the California Legislature in 1927. The statue, currently located in the National Statuary Hall, symbolizes California’s debt to King and reflects his important role in California History. From the statues’ new location in the California State Capitol, the public will be exposed to King’s legacy as tireless advocate for Union loyalty during the Civil War, his support for an early form of the Red Cross, and his efforts as promoter of California’s natural beauty.

    Presented in partnership with the California State Legislature Joint Committee on Rules, State Capitol Museum, and California State Parks.
