The Senate of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio has adopted a resolution honoring the Toledo Museum of Art on its 125th anniversary. Established in 1901 by Edward Libbey and a group of charter members, the museum has significantly contributed to the exhibition and preservation of Ohio's cultural assets.

The resolution acknowledges the Toledo Museum of Art's role in sustaining the creative history of the state, nation, and world, emphasizing the importance of the arts in enriching the human spirit and fostering common ground among people. The Senate members express their congratulations and best wishes for the museum's continued success, highlighting the institution's efforts to advance the country's artistic heritage amidst a focus on industry, science, and technology. A duly authenticated copy of the resolution will be transmitted to the Toledo Museum of Art.
