kenneth griffin lends us constitution to the national constitution center

Billionaire Citadel CEO and art collector Ken Griffin has announced he will lend his rare copy of the U.S. Constitution to the National Constitution Center (NCC) in Philadelphia for public display through 2026. The loan is accompanied by a $15 million gift—the largest single donation in the NCC’s history—which will fund two new galleries focused on America’s founding principles and the separation of powers, both slated to open in 2026. Griffin will also loan a first printing of the 17 proposed constitutional amendments from 1789, ten of which became the Bill of Rights. In recognition, the NCC will rename its central hall the Kenneth C. Griffin Great Hall.
