ANNAPOLIS, MD—Governor Wes Moore and First Lady Dawn Moore have announced that they will open the Government House of Maryland to celebrate the holidays during a Public Open House on Saturday, December 9, at Government House, located at 110 State Circle in Annapolis (21401). The event will be open to the public from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

“Over the last few months, our family has been deeply touched by Marylanders across the state who have supported us in a time of transition,” said Gov. Moore. “Dawn and I look forward to opening the doors of the People’s House to the people of Maryland as we celebrate this season of reflection and renewal. The holidays call on us to embrace our communities, and this open house honors that beautiful tradition.”

“We could not be more excited to welcome you into the People’s House. Bring your families, check out some decorations, enjoy some homemade cookies, and maybe even get a Tucker sighting,” said First Lady Dawn Moore. “On behalf of our family, we hope your holidays are filled with joy, peace, safety, and rest this season. The Governor and I are honored every day to serve you, and we are so grateful for your partnership as we continue to move forward together.”

During this joyous holiday season, visitors are encouraged to bring a donation of a new, safe, unwrapped toy to be collected by Maryland State Police and given to children in need across the State of Maryland.
