To continue exploring today's most intriguing constitutional issues and their historical background, the National Constitution Center is establishing a Changing Exhibits Program that will add breadth and depth to what visitors can experience in its permanent exhibition. The Challenge Grant will be used to support the completion of a 6,000 square-foot Changing Exhibits Gallery, and begin an endowment to fund staff costs and planning and implementation expenses. Exhibits will draw on the latest humanities scholarship in a wide variety of disciplines, and will be presented through cutting-edge technology and other innovative display techniques. Planning will be informed by a staff and Board review process, consultation with a Distinguished Scholars Advisory Panel, and interaction with libraries, museums, archives, and other partner organizations around the country. |
