Constitution Day Roses

This Constitution Day, honor 250 years of the American experiment and the generations of Americans who have shaped it by supporting the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site and our civic education initiatives.

Dedicate a rose (or roses!) to someone who has shaped American democracy – from a favorite Signer, Founder or civil rights advocate to an everyday American citizen whose dedication to our constitutional ideals has made an outsized impact on their community. Your roses will be added to the Charters of Freedom display at the Presidential Site on September 17th. This custom setting, featuring your founding documents, is hewed out of Indiana limestone and on permanent display in bronze in the Sarah Evans Barker Citizenship Plaza at the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site’s Johnson-Floyd Presidential Commons.

SPECIAL FOR AMERICA 250: Help us reach out goal of at least 250 roses! With your gift, you can choose to either personally lay your rose on the Presidential Site’s limestone and bronze U.S. Constitution on September 17th, or Presidential Site staff can do so on your behalf—in your name, or in honor (or in memory) of a friend, family member, veteran, or founder you admire.

Your support will help the Presidential Site encourage public participation in our American system of self-government, and advance history and civics education for all ages.
