The US constitution is the fundamental document of our government, yet it is unlikely that the average citizen has read it!\u00a0 Artist Morgan O\u2019Hara originated the idea of handwriting the constitution and has said \u201cHand copying a document can produce an intimate connection to the text and its meaning. The hand writer may discover things about this document that they never knew, a passage that challenges or moves them. They may even leave with a deeper connection to the founders and the country, or even a sense of encouragement.\u201d<\/p>\n

The event is free and all ages are encouraged to participate and engage with our government\u2019s founding document. There will be copies of the constitution, writing materials and resources for all ages.<\/p>\n

MC CTA is a citizen group from Southern Madison and Northern Chenango Counties. We work together to support the rights of all community members and uphold the democratic and progressive principles that make our nation strong and diverse. MC CTA is committed to nonviolent democratic action.<\/p>\n
