Live your freedoms.
Learn MoreThe Mission of the
First Amendment Museum
is to inspire all Americans to live and love their First Amendment freedoms. The museum will promote the practice and understanding of the First Amendment to the US Constitution by developing a landmark museum with innovative exhibits and engaging programming. By creating a far-reaching partnership network and accessible and relevant online materials, we will inspire all Americans to experience the five freedoms in their own lives.
Empowering Americans to champion their freedoms
Today, our ability to understand, protect, and exercise our First Amendment freedoms is just as critical as ever. Democracy cannot operate without informed, active, and engaged citizens, and our constitution gives us all the right to participate. But what are our constitutional rights as American citizens? And how many of us actually know them? This is why the First Amendment Museum was formed, and why we need your help today. Watch our video below to see more.
