Through more than 100 interactive exhibits and an estimated 17 hours of interpretive content, the National Constitution Center’s permanent exhibition presents The Story of We the People.
But even with such in-depth treatment, the story of the U.S. Constitution is too rich and complex to ever be fully told. The Center’s Changing Exhibits Program offers fresh looks and different perspectives on topics relating to the Constitution’s history and its contemporary relevance.
