This is quite an amazing repository of North Carolina history. They named each enslaved man forced to build the state Capitol, and gave his history and the history of his enslaver. I go to Raleigh often, and I always think about stuff like this. This whole project is unexpected

Today we officially launch a new digital humanities project that names and shares the stories of the 130+ enslaved African American men who built, maintained, and worked in the NC State Capitol 1833-1865. We invite you to visit namingtoknowing.org #BlackHistoryMonth
Mark your calendars! Dec. 2: Make a rustic outdoor decoration to feed the birds and squirrels on Capitol Square from 1- 3 p.m. Dec. 7: The annual State Capitol Tree Lighting Ceremony starts at 5:30 p.m. Both of events are free! See you there!
Tickets are still available for the State Capitol Foundation's Oyster Roast fundraiser on October 6! This event supports our education and restoration programs eventbrite.com/e/oyster-roast…
This fall the North Carolina State Capitol will be hosting a series of walking tours centered on the history of protest and civil rights in downtown Raleigh. Sign up and get more information by visiting bit.ly/3qrk8RW Reminder: @ncstatecapitol is still closed.
🗣️Calling all teachers!! While we're closed for construction, we're offering virtual programs for students and community groups. Now booking for fall! Questions? Email Capitol tour coordinator Natalie Rodriguez, [email protected]
That’s a great view! 👀
Progress! ✨ Each piece of copper paneling is individually measured & fitted before workers carry the panels up to the roof. The seams are double crimped with a machine and by hand to make a water-tight seal Video courtesy of Charlie Sarratt @SkySiteImages

The Capitol may be closed for construction, but the annual Independence Day event and naturalization ceremony is on! Join us on the south side of the grounds on #July4th. The Raleigh Concert Band kicks things off at 11:30, ceremony at noon 🇺🇸ncdcr.gov/news/press-rel…
Today, we gratefully remember and honor the brave women and men who served and made the ultimate sacrifice to secure American freedom at home and abroad. #MemorialDay 📷: The NC Vietnam Veterans Memorial, State Capitol grounds. Dedicated 1987
We can’t wait! See you Monday 🎶
Hope you had a great time in Raleigh today!
