Volunteers and community members participated Saturday during a Constitution Day event on the lawn outside the A.K. Smiley Library and Lincoln Memorial Shrine in Redlands.

There was crafts, music and stories about the history of the document, which is celebrating its 224th anniversary this year. People got to sign their name to rolls as part of a constitution display, and local art displayed.
