The Smithsonian’s new African-American history museum doesn’t open for another 10 days, and even then, you’ll probably have to wait until November to get in.

Luckily, a handful of visitors have been providing a glimpse inside on Instagram.

One of those people is Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), who visited the museum on the National Mall Wednesday morning and posted photos.
