Constitution Day and Citizenship Day “commemorate the formation and signing on September 17, 1787, of the Constitution and recognize all who, by coming of age or by naturalization, have become citizens.” If September 17 takes place on a weekend or on another holiday, Constitution Day and Citizenship Day are observed on a nearby weekday. On the day, the president traditionally issues a proclamation calling on government officials to display the flag on government buildings, and calls for the day to be observed in schools and other places with appropriate ceremonies. Events and activities take place around the country, and civil and education groups provide citizens with educational resources about the Constitution.
Observe the day by celebrating the Constitution and citizenship! View the Constitution at the National Archives Museum, or read it online. Learn about your rights and responsibilities as a citizen, and if you wish to become a citizen, learn how to do so. The United States flag could be displayed on the day, and patriotic films could be watched. Explore primary source documents related to the Constitution from the Library of Congress, as well as resources from the U.S. Department of Education and the Center for Civic Education. You could also travel to Philadelphia and visit Independence Hall and the nearby National Constitution Center.
