Alan Cottrill. John Glenn, astronaut. 2021. Zanesville.
There is a second one visiting the state house in Columbus. Glenn was a local boy, from nearby Cambridge and New Concord.
Indian on roof of Alan Cottrill's sculpture studio. Glenn is further left on sidewalk, and is not pointing here. There is a long line of bronze statues on the sidewalk leading to the entrance. Inside the studio are displayed other finished works, and current work is being done. The work is worth seeing, and the suggested admission is very modest.
Cottrill *1952 began sculpting in 1990. Perhaps, his most famous commission is Thomas Edison in Statuary Hall in the nation's Capitol.
Sheep with hockey skates, there are two others in front but unshod.

Memorial of the war dead from Muskingum County in World War II, and Korean Conflict. This is by the court house. To bring home the loss of life, each helmet has the name of a man from the county who died in the wars.
