Senator Caleb Rowden Appointed to Missouri Capitol Commission


JEFFERSON CITY, MO –Senator Caleb Rowden, R-Columbia, announced his appointment to the Missouri Capitol Commission. The Commission, originally created in 1911 to oversee the construction of the State Capitol, is charged with the building’s preservation and restoration, and maintains the State Capitol’s vast art collection. The commission also works to educate the public on the history of Missouri’s State Capitol.

“Our State Capitol is a monumental symbol of unity, strength and public service. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to walk the halls on a daily basis,” said Sen. Rowden. “I’m especially honored to serve on the Commission as it oversees a multi-year exterior restoration and draws future plans to make the building safer, more efficient and most importantly more accessible to the people of Missouri.”
