A remarkable period in West Virginia's past is captured in the video — the building of the present day Capitol in Charleston's East End. Viewers learn how architect Cass Gilbert — in the throes of the Great Depression — molded tons of steel, limestone and marble into an architectural and engineering marvel.

Now that the project is completed, the rich history of West Virginia's Capitols is being shared. First, MotionMasters and The University of Charleston will host a screening at the West Virginia Cultural Center at 6 p.m. March 6. The premiere will then air at 8 p.m. March 13 on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.

The documentary will have repeated showings on West Virginia Public Broadcasting. For a programming schedule go to: WV Public Broadcasting
