The Friends of the Old State Capitol have worked tirelessly over the years to preserve this National Historic Landmark. Their work led to the museum being placed under the Secretary of State's office, where it underwent a massive restoration.

Today, the Friends of the Old State Capitol provide volunteers and docents to assist the 60,000+ people who visit the building each year.

The Friends contribute their time, talent and treasure to support the Old State Capitol. They have funded major projects such as a multi-language audio tour and funding for traveling exhibits.
