Construction of the buildings will still be complete before the end of 2025, but the foundation wants to take time on the museum’s interior.

Barack Obama’s namesake presidential center — which was slated to open in late 2025 in Jackson Park — will see its debut pushed to the following spring, Obama Foundation officials said this week.

Construction of the buildings will still be complete before the end of 2025, Jarrett said, but the foundation wants to take time on the museum’s interior, which will have 30 exhibits and about 50 interactive media components.. Exhibits will include artifacts and documents lent by the National Archives and Records Administration as well as from volunteers, friends, and staffers of the campaign and administration.
