Constitution Day

In the tradition of recognizing Constitution Day, RISD
will be hosting a live community reading of the Constitution at The
Fleet Library. All members of the community are welcome to
participate, and are invited to stop by the library anytime between
11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. You will be able to read anytime you arrive, for a brief or longer time, as you choose. It will be possible for more than one person to read at the same time, as there will be a number of copies available. The reading will be video recorded. All regular activities within the library will continue as usual. Please come and have your voice be part of RISD’s
voice on this important day!
