Significant audio-visual enhancements in the National Constitution Center’s three largest public spaces will augment delivery of the museum’s programs on timely constitutional issues for both on-site and online audiences, which encompass students, teachers, and adult learners from throughout the US. These new technological capabilities are projected to make the venue more appealing to rental clients and press outlets, supporting new revenue streams and strengthening the institution's role as a prominent location for regional and national media events.

The total grant amount represents project funding plus an additional 20% in unrestricted general operating support.
