Visit the Museum and meet the ‘Father of the Constitution!’ Portrayed by Living Historian Kyle Jenks, James Madison will share stories about his efforts to ratify the U.S. Constitution 230 years ago. Learn how our system of government was debated in 1788, hear how Madison helped ratification in New York, and don’t forget to take a close look at Mr. Madison’s unique 18th-century fashion!
Come back to the Museum to wish First Lady Dolley Madison a happy 200th birthday on Sunday, May 20!
