The Union for Contemporary Art is in the newly renovated Blue Lion Center at 24th and Lake Streets, considered by locals to be the heart of North Omaha. This organization works to connect art and community to inspire social change in Omaha. Art is a tool that can help people express themselves, tell their stories, and envision the future. The Union has a public art gallery, co-op art studios, performing arts space, and community garden. They're open Tuesday through Saturday, 11-6pm!
I love that this gallery is free. It's a wonderful and important place for art in the same context.
I just spent a very enjoyable morning with my kids at the Union. They have a lot of great art supplies, collage materials, markers and really nice, helpful staff to kind of show younger kids some of the ways they can make part. I think it was a great time and we will definitely be back
The space and programming is massively impressive. And little known fact: they are really great about recycling, composting, and using their finished compost to grow more food on-site and share freely with the community.
