On this year’s Constitution Day, in the 250th year of the American Founding, The Claremont Institute is excited to host an intimate and monumental gathering at Mount Vernon.
On this prestigious occasion, we will address the most pressing concerns facing our founding, the successes and difficulties facing our current regime, and their proposals for where our country shall be heading for the next 250 years.
The evening festivities will include passed hors d’oeuvres while overlooking the Potomac, an intimate dinner and panel discussion with our scholars on the front lawn of Washington’s estate for Lincoln Society Members and above, along with the presentation of the 2026 Henry Salvatori Prize to Dr. Charles R. Kesler.
The night will culminate with fireworks over the Potomac.
