Support The Siegel & Shuster Superman Plaza

Bring Superman Home!

The Siegel & Shuster Society, an all volunteer nonprofit 501(c)3 public charity organization, has launched a $2.5 million dollar project to build the Siegel & Shuster Superman Plaza honoring Cleveland's hometown hero, along with his creators, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, who grew up in the Glenville Neighborhood of Cleveland. The Superman Plaza will be located in downtown Cleveland at the corner of Ontario Street and St. Clair Avenue, outside of the Cleveland Convention Center.

In 2007, the Siegel & Shuster Society was established with the mission to honor the creators of Superman. To commemorate the duo’s achievement, the Siegel & Shuster Superman Plaza will include:

The construction of a stainless steel Superman statue 18 feet up

Bronze statues of Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, and Joanne Siegel, the original model for Lois Lane

An iconic telephone booth that Jerry and Joe used to transform the mild mannered Clark Kent into Superman.

The dynamic composition of the statues, with Superman seemingly in flight above Jerry and Joanne, while Joe is depicted sketching Action Comics No. 1, captures the essence of their creative process and the iconic imagery of the superhero. This plaza will not only celebrate the origins of Superman but also enrich Cleveland’s cultural landscape.

Superman stands as a symbol of hope and inspiration, recognized globally for his unwavering commitment to justice. The Siegel & Shuster Superman Plaza aims to evoke these sentiments, instilling pride and optimism within the Cleveland community while attracting tourists to experience the birthplace of a legend. The dedication of the Siegel and Shuster Tribute Plaza mirrors the determination of its namesakes, emphasizing the enduring significance of Superman and the creators behind him.

Your support for this endeavor is greatly appreciated, as together, we honor a legacy that continues to inspire generations. With the help of Super donors, we have so far raised $787,000. But, we still need your help!

"Back in 1933, two 17-year-olds, writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster, came up with the idea of a young man in red and blue tights who could leap over tall buildings in a single bound. They called him Superman. They didn’t just give us the world’s first Superhero, they gave us something to believe in.”
