FRIDAYS, MAY 12, 19, 26; JUN 9, 16, 23, 30, 2017, 6:00PM

Guided, topical conversations about the US Constitution and its role in our democracy—with drinks! Reflect, inquire, and build your knowledge of American government during AMMO Café’s happy hour ($5 draft beer and select wine).

Constitution Café is a project of the artist Linda Pollack, who believes, “The U.S. Constitution is a living document, part of our quotidian life, influencing us in both large and small ways daily.” Visit mydailyconstitution.org for more information.
