WHAT: Distribution of FREE ACLU Pocket Constitutions
WHO: ACLU-NH Celebrating National Constitution Day 2016
WHEN: September 17, 2016 from 10AM-1PM
WHERE: Portsmouth Market Square, Portsmouth, NH 
WHY: To have your own copy and to celebrate the signing of the United States Constitution and the value of these rights in a free society. 
 
The ACLU’s little pocket-sized Constitution became the most talked about accessory of Summer 2016 after .  After offering free copies of the Constitution on its website, the ACLU was flooded with orders from individuals hungry to learn more about their rights. They sold out after distributing over 100,000 copies, making the Portsmouth Market Square celebration the ONLY place you can get this must-have item here in the Granite State.
