National Constitution Center
1 Dec 2016
The National Constitution Center (NCC) is the only nonprofit, nonpartisan institution devoted to the United States Constitution. The NCC offers exhibitions, education programs, and theatrical productions, and acts as a hub for dialogue on constitutional issues. In 2010, a Center grant supported the exploration of a new theater-exhibition hybrid program that combined historic artifacts and documents with live performances by actors to create a compelling experience for visitors. A 2018 Center grant supports the creation of an original theater work designed to shed new light on the Reconstruction era in the United States, the constitutional legacy of the Civil War, and the passage of the Fourteenth Amendment. In 2021, the Constitution Center received a Re:imagining Recovery grant to make significant audio-visual enhancements in its three largest public spaces to augment delivery of the museum’s programs on timely constitutional issues for both on-site and online audiences.
