Ken Griffin will loan his copies of the Constitution and Bill of Rights so the public can see them
- On Tuesday, May 13, 2025, Ken Griffin revealed plans to lend his first-edition copies of the 1787 Constitution and the Bill of Rights for public display at the Philadelphia-based National Constitution Center.
- The loan follows Griffin's 2021 purchase of the Constitution for $43.2 million at Sotheby's and his intent to expand public access amid the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States.
- Griffin Catalyst will donate $15 million, the largest in the center's history, to fund a new exhibit telling the story of America's founding principles from revolution to the Bill of Rights.
- Jeffrey Rosen, CEO of the center, called Griffin's contribution a 'transformative opportunity' that will support a major renovation and promote understanding across political divides.
- The exhibit aims to address younger generations' distrust of institutions by linking history to American values such as freedom, democracy, and opportunity during the nation's 250th anniversary.
