The Union for Contemporary Art

I freaking love the UNION! My first time at the UNION was last year. I wanted to find a place where I could know more about the Omaha community and also work on my art.
The people here are so amazing and welcoming. They are willing to help and teach you new art skills. They have a great program called the CO-​OP where you can sign up for a year or monthly membership and participate in workshops offered by in house artists and use the facilities. They have an area for ceramics, photo lab, screen printing lab, an area for wood cutting, and also a beautiful garden that is in bloom.
Something I love about the UNION is that they focus on community outreach and work with kids and youth in North Omaha in providing them art workshops on the weekends. I love seeing the different projects they create during art club.
I am so happy I found a place like this in town!

What an incredible creative outlet for artists and artist wannabes alike. The union for contemporary arts opened its doors to the North Omaha community in junction with Bemis and Kaneko art galleries. It similarly supports artists in residence to continue their creative adventures while giving back to the Omaha community in terms of community service. It also Has been offering locals to utilize their artist studios, dark room, printmaking studio and clay works for a $ ⁴⁰⁄₆ month price tag. Pretty enticing if you ask me. It also includes workshops with local artists that can teach you some of their know how. All in all I am very impressed and inspired by what this community has offered to share and am excited to see it grow!
