Monumental Art & Events, 1991 - 2000

 Series

Scope and Contents

This series contains substantial information on two related projects: a set of plaques containing the text of the United States Constitution; and a monument to the bicentennial of the United States Presidency (purchased at a foreclosure sale in 1993; including miniature replicas, and attempts to find a permanent home for the monument). The Presidency monument (formally titled E pluribus unum; a development of an earlier proposal for the Constitution monument) was displayed at the Apollo 11 Silver Anniversary Celebration. This series chiefly represents the contents of an original box with the label "Kendall [College] entrepreneurship class - 2006"
