In 1855, before our state’s top schools accepted women, Abigail & Delia Rogers founded the Michigan Female College in our second Capitol. RSVP to [email protected] attend or watch at youtube.com/@mistatecapito… learn more about these remarkable women!
@MIStateCapitol - Lansing, MI Many of our projects take us to great heights! #artconservation #artrestoration #decorativepainting #victoriandecoration #stenciling #goldleafing #muralrestoration #colorpalette #statecapitolbuilding #buildingrestoration #nationallandmark
Thanks to the students at Moline Christian School for these beautiful thank you notes! We especially appreciate the drawing of the scaffolding in the dome! Glad you enjoyed your tour of #mistatecapitol and we hope you can come back again soon.
The Michigan State Capitol Commission and the Association of Preservation Technology invite you to “Capitolizing on Technology,” a workshop on the use of strategic documentation in Capitol construction projects. Join us in Heritage Hall on June 21-22!
When #mistatecapitol opened it was heated and ventilated with steam boilers located under the north and south porticos. Today, a geothermal system provides the Capitol’s heating and cooling, but the words “Boiler room” are still visible in the stonework at the south exit.
This photo of the House of Representatives provides a fascinating peek into daily life at #mistatecapitol in the 1940s! The original desks are barely visible underneath paperwork and typewriters. Microphones for the original audio system stand in the background by the windows.
19th-century Michigan had a renowned public education system - yet women were not accepted to our state’s top schools! Learn how the fight for co-education in played out in our second Capitol with us on May 7. RSVP to attend in person or watch at youtube.com/@mistatecapitol
Tomorrow is volunteer appreciation day! The Michigan State Capitol Commission would like to thank our Capitol Docents! This dedicated team leads fun & informative tours for thousands of visitors each year. If you’d like to be a Docent visit capitol.michigan.gov/volunteers
For #ThrowbackThursday we’re taking in a 1950s view of the Capitol’s southwest side! By this time, most of the west lawn had been converted to parking and the dome was painted bright white. This contrasted with the darkened exterior stonework which was in dire need of cleaning.
The #mistatecapitol art collection includes some wonderful examples of historic portraiture, including several paintings by Lewis Ives, a renowned artist of 19th century Detroit. Learn more about Ives’s work and our other portraits at mscarts.org
Hey, we know those bookshelves! The wooden bookcases in this 1950s photo were made for the State Library in the 1870s. When this photo was taken, they were being used in the Supreme Court’s law library. Today a rebuilt bookcase is displayed on the ground floor of #mistatecapitol!
The rotunda art restoration is coming to a close! The painters have cleaned and repaired the decorative surfaces, and art conservators have completed their work on the muses. The inner dome is ready for another 30-40 years of life!⭐️
Early 20th century author, Belle Maniates worked as a clerk in #mistatecapitol offices as she established a successful writing career. One of her books was made into a movie starring Mary Pickford! Learn more about Maniates in the City Pulse. bit.ly/4cWkVOj
A trip to #mistatecapitol is a fun and free way to learn more about state government! Get know to your Capitol at www.capitol.michigan.govto find visitor information, discover #mistatecapitol history, view our collections, and sign up for educational programs.
It’s #NationalLibraryWeek! When #mistatecapitol opened in 1879, the west wing held the State Library. In 1922, most of the collection was moved out, leaving behind the state Law Library which remained till 1970. Today this space is divided into several meeting rooms and offices.
#mistatecapitol has witnessed over 140 years of technological changes. Join us tomorrow night in Heritage Hall to lean about the stylish, fascinating, tech of the late 19th century! RSVP to [email protected] attend or watch at youtube.com/@mistatecapitol
Spring of 1874 saw the arrival of bricklayers on Capitol Square. This State Republican article reported that there would eventually be 30 masons working at the #mistatecapitol construction site, laying about 5 million bricks that year! #buildingmicapitol
It's dome vs. skyscraper! We're up against the Nebraska Capitol today!

Happy 224th Birthday to the @librarycongress! For more than two centuries, we have been dedicated to collecting, preserving and sharing America’s treasures for generations to use. We are committed in serving our users because the Library of Congress is a library for ALL.
It's always fun seeing photos from our past ☺. Be sure to check out the rebuilt bookcase at the ground floor of the @MIStateCapitol.
Hey, we know those bookshelves! The wooden bookcases in this 1950s photo were made for the State Library in the 1870s. When this photo was taken, they were being used in the Supreme Court’s law library. Today a rebuilt bookcase is displayed on the ground floor of #mistatecapitol!

The continued bond we share with our friends at the @MIStateCapitol ☺️.
It’s #NationalLibraryWeek! When #mistatecapitol opened in 1879, the west wing held the State Library. In 1922, most of the collection was moved out, leaving behind the state Law Library which remained till 1970. Today this space is divided into several meeting rooms and offices.
LOVE spending time with our @NCSD kiddos! I’m a terrible tour guide but I WAS able to share a fun fact: the beautiful Eastern White Pine growing in the middle of the @LibraryofMich has a name - Carl. #TheMoreYouKnow
@NoviWoods 4th grade had an incredible tour of the capitol! We learned about history, got to see into the governor's office, & went on the floor of the House of Representatives. Thanks @KellyBreenMI for spending time with us! To making learning meaningful & memorable!
Here’s your reminder to get your piano tuned! This week, the 116-year-old piano in the schoolhouse exhibit at the Michigan History Museum had a tune up. Check out the signatures & dates in the photo—often when a piano is tuned, the tuner will mark it. What dates do you see?
Fun Facts: Did you know Canning's #conservationcleaning of @GrandCentralNYC ceiling revealed numerous signatures, names & dates, marriage, births & other milestones recorded by those who worked on the 1944 #mural recreation. Here you can see the name J.V. Brophy in Pegasus’ eye.
On this day in 1864: The 900-member First Michigan Colored Regiment, organized at Camp Ward in Detroit as 102nd U.S. Colored Troops, leave for Civil War service on the Union side. The Black men, all volunteers, will battle deep in Dixie in South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.
Enjoyed 2 great days of showcasing the #LibraryofMi at the @HistSocietyMI's Local History Conference. Kudos to HSM for a great event!
We have worked on many #restoration & #conservation projects at the #nationalhistoriclandmark @MIStateCapitol from #plasterrepair to #decorativepainting. Catch a glimpse of our most recent involvement for the Rotunda’s #historicrestoration at the Capitol. #historiccapitols
We had a wonderful time attending the 66th Local History Conference: Michigan in Perspective hosted by the Historical Society of Michigan. Thank you to everyone who supported us, and we look forward to seeing you all again next year! #LocalMichiganHistoryConference
@MIStateCapitol @rbeggin Ha. That makes sense. Guess I was remembering @rbeggin's days in Lansing! Thanks.
