The city of Columbus will be holding a public conversation with former mayors of the city on Wednesday, focused on the history of the community.

The Legacy of Leadership — Our Mayors Remember talk will be on Wednesday at The Commons. It will feature Mayor Mary Ferdon, former mayors Nancy Ann Brown-Poynter, Fred Armstrong and Jim Lienhoop, as well as former Deputy Mayor Sherry Stark representing the Stewart Administration.
