John Lewis Plaza closed the Obama Presidential Center’s opening weekend Sunday with Lizzie G hosting a schedule of DJs, a band and public activities alongside museum tours for ticket holders.
The Sunday lineup ran from 10 a.m. to 2:45 p.m., featuring DJ Rae Chardonnay twice, Meagan McNeal + Band at 11 a.m., and DJ TRQPITECA in the afternoon.
Lizzie G, an inspirational hip-hop artist, said the South Side event carried "electrifying" energy and pride after the dedication ceremony that launched the weekend on Friday.

The finale underscored the center’s opening message of leadership, hope and community connection in Jackson Park.
