A special display at the Ford Presidential Museum in Grand Rapids features the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, on loan from the @USNatArchives. The exhibit is free and open to the public until Nov. 1.
Join us in Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor for a conversation about the actor-turned-politician whose leadership ushered in a transformative conservative era in American politics and remained a man of contradictions, even to those closest to him. Learn more: bit.ly/4xjcciF

It's hard to believe but #ArtPrize is already at the halfway mark! Museum visitors can enjoy sculptures, paintings, photography, and interactive pieces from over 30 artists in a display from the museum's outdoor plaza to the lobby.
#OTD in 1974, President & Mrs. Ford welcomed President Giovanni Leone & Mrs. Leone of Italy. The leaders met in the Oval Office, both had backgrounds as lawyers and Leone had been a member of Italy’s Constitutional Assembly just as Ford had served in the House of Representatives.
