The opening of the Obama Presidential Center will be a celebration of the power of ordinary people coming together to do extraordinary things. From our next door neighbors to our community online, we invite you to celebrate this milestone through a week of moments designed to inspire action on campus and across the world.
Scheduled to open in 2026, the Obama Presidential Museum will tell the story of President and Mrs. Obama and their historic presidency—and how we can all do our part to create change.
See how we're building a welcoming, vibrant campus where people from across the street or from around the globe can come to get inspired, find common ground, and take action.
