THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION

Saturday, September 11th, 11:30 am

The Museum is offering a uniquely interactive presentation for the general public. Audience members will enter Independence Hall inside the Museum’s Heritage Theater, and BECOME delegates at the Constitutional Convention of 1787. Dr. Benjamin Franklin and James Madison lead the debate over what might, or might not, go into the Constitution*. Guests will also be able to enjoy special tours through the Museum galleries and a chance to print their own Declaration of Independence on a Colonial printing press. Reservations are strongly advised so call 310-515-7166 or mail@printmuseum.org.

*Reading participants for the Convention must be 5th grade to adult.
