'Eyes of Freedom' Memorial Makes Stop This Week at UC
The University of Cincinnati will host the
memorial Jan. 25-29 in the Tangeman University Center.
The moving exhibit features 23 life-size portraits of members of the Lima Company 3/25, a Columbus, Ohio-based regiment that lost 23 Marines while deployed to Iraq in 2005.
The paintings, created by Westerville artist Anita Miller and unveiled in the Ohio Statehouse Rotunda in 2008, have since become a tribute for fallen soldiers from all military branches. The traveling exhibit regularly tours the country for exhibition at museums and events.
The exhibit is hosted at UC through the
UC Veterans Programs and Services office
. Public exhibit hours at UC are noon to 6 p.m. Monday; 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday.
For more information, call the UC Veterans Programs and Services office at 513-556-6811.
