06/11/26 @ 7:00pm - 06/11/26 @ 9:00pm Off Site VIRTUAL: Inside the Obama Presidential Center

Join us as we take part in a webinar, sponsored by the Algonquin Area Public Library, for a special virtual presentation exploring the Barack Obama Presidential Library and Obama Presidential Center.

Presenters, Kenvi Phillips, inaugural director of the Barack Obama Presidential Library, and Tina Tchen, Executive Vice President of Programs for the Obama Foundation, will discuss the first digital Presidential Library and the Obama Presidential Center as a vibrant community hub, economic anchor, and beacon of democracy. This program offers a unique opportunity to learn how presidential history is preserved, accessed, and shared, and how these records deepen our understanding of recent history and democratic values.

The Barack Obama Presidential Center is a museum, library, and educational campus dedicated to President Barack Obama's legacy. Located in Jackson Park on Chicago’s South Side, the Center will feature community gathering spaces, a Chicago Public Library branch, and the Obama Foundation's headquarters. The Center opens in June 2026. The National Archives and Records Administration operates the Barack Obama Presidential Library, the Agency's first fully digital Presidential Library, a partner of the Obama Presidential Center.

Please register here to be included in this one-of-a-kind event! Make sure you tell them Bloomingdale PL sent you!

This program is online on Zoom. After registering, you receive a link to the Zoom webinar at least three hours before the program.
