Tens of thousands of people in the United States have been given a sneak preview of the Obama Presidential Centre in Chicago.
It opens on 19 June, coinciding with Juneteenth, a federal holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the US.
The roughly $850 million project covers both the political and personal realms of the nation’s first Black president.
Features include being able to take a photo of yourself in a life-sized replica of the Oval Office.
“Many presidential libraries and institutions have some of these iconic features. There are some that have the replica of the limousine or Air Force One, but President Obama chose the Oval Office,” said Josh Harris, The Obama Foundation’s vice-president of public engagement.
