Stay up to date on Mansion Media by watching interviews, event videos and clips of what’s happening at Virginia’s home.
William Clarke
William H. Clarke is a Blackstone, Virginia based folk artist who narrates rural African American heritage of old tobacco farming, country stores, baptisms, funerals and the daily life of his childhood. Clarke's paintings Higher Ground and School Bus can be seen as part of the Art Experience at the Executive Mansion of Virginia. First Lady Suzanne S. Youngkin sat down with Caroline Coleburn and CBS 6 to highlight and celebrate Clarke's contributions to his community.
Black History Month
At Virginia’s Executive Mansion we celebrate African American artists, history and talents not only during Black History Month, but throughout the year. Through gracious partnerships with Virginia education, museum and art institutions across the Commonwealth, as well as living artists, we capture the true spirit of Virginia. Visit the Mansion on Fridays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. or click on the Art Experience tab to see the newest addition, Portrait of Abraham Lincoln by A. B. Jackson, on loan from Hampton University.
