Overview
There is a saying, "It was a Friday night and it seemed like a good idea at the time." That sums up the beginning of the State Capitols Project.When Jane Moorman told her brother of her idea of photographing state capitols, he said, "You do know there are 50 states and two of them you can't drive to."Her answer was, "Your point is? It gives me a good reason to visit every state."Each capitol has its own unique beauty that reflects the state's personality when it was built.The most breath-taking aspect of the Colorado capitol is the grand staircase of polished brass.There are several works of art honoring women who contributed during the early days of statehood.Beginning with a quilt that shows various women and how they served their community, to stained-glass honoring Frances Jacobs and Emily Griffith for their contributions.Other stained-glass windows honor the diverse population of the state.
