EXHIBITS & PROGRAMS

Democracy starts at the National Archives
From our Founding Documents—the Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution, and Bill of Rights—to over 40 billion records, artifacts, maps, photos, rolls of film, emails, patents, census records, and more, the National Archives preserves, protects, and shares the moments and milestones that have shaped America. These records reveal countless stories that bring history off the page and inspire more Americans to build toward a bright future for our democracy.
And with 2026 marking the nation’s 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, there’s never been a better time to reflect on how far we’ve come as a nation and to find your place in America’s history.
