Winter

Visitors to the National Constitution Center during the month of February will have the opportunity to honor the contributions that African Americans have made throughout history during the National Constitution Center’s African American History Month Celebration.  Guests visiting the Center throughout the month can participate in a variety of interactive programs that celebrate the lives of iconic figures including Frederick Douglass, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rosa Parks and President Barack Obama, whose vision, courage and sacrifice made real the principles our country was founded upon.  In addition, the Center’s main exhibition, The Story of We the People, illuminates the trials and triumphs of African Americans throughout history.

Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day with these local events honoring the work and memory of this great American.
