About the Exhibition
Virginia’s state art collection is a significant body of work as well as a key component of its physical setting, the 18th-century State Capitol, designed by Thomas Jefferson, and the surrounding public park known as Capitol Square. While the Capitol is closed for renovation and expansion, the Arts Center will showcase 39 pieces from the Commonwealth’s artistic legacy. The exhibition, organized by the Library of Virginia, will be the only opportunity to view some of the best examples from this exceptional collection away from Richmond.
