    Posted by CPS_web on 5/30/2025

    If you visit the United States Capitol Building over the next year, you will see a painting from one of Chelsea High School’s graduating seniors in the Class of 2025.

Their painting will represent District 7, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley’s congressional district. Nat’s painting, a view of Chelsea’s Bellingham-Cary House, aligned with the competition’s theme, “Massachusetts Stories: From Past to Present”. Their piece will adorn the wall of the Cannon Tunnel, which is the walkway inside the U.S. Capitol building through which members of Congress, congressional staff, lobbyists, and the general public enter the building. Click here to read more.
