Since 2024, Mass Cultural Council has been proud to partner with the Office of Governor Maura Healey and Lieutenant Governor Driscoll to exhibit Massachusetts artists in the Governor’s reception area in the State House. The current exhibition is in celebration of Pride Month and features three Massachusetts-based artists: Jo Hay (Provincetown), Ashley Jin (Boston), and Rowan Raskin (Boston). The gallery embedded above features a sampling of their art on display.

The exhibition is on view in the Governor’s Reception area located on the third floor of the Massachusetts State House, Suite 360. The State House is open to the public from Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm.
