Collaborative Art Group Lucky Pierre invites scholars, artists, and activists to investigate: What do you know about the US Constitution?

We'll start at the beginning of the constitution "We the people..." and work our way through to the end - "The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation." Drinks will, of course, be served after the 21st Amendment.
Each of the 24 guest presenters will present their findings as a 30-minute presentation / discussion / song / performance/ polemic. Each presentation will be followed by a group discussion. Visitors can come and go at any time throughout the day. Findings and texts from the day are to be released in book form on Inauguration Day 2013.
