The Omaha Performing Arts Center is the next significant cultural centerpiece for the City of Omaha’s ever-growing civic institutions, bringing an important focus and presence to the musical arts community across the Midwest. As an urban ensemble, the Center reinforces existing patterns and connections with the community of Omaha while creating new possibilities for the development of the musical arts, within a series of memorable spaces for both teaching and performance. These include a 2000-seat major concert hall, a 450-seat flexible chamber music hall and an outdoor performance venue within the center courtyard.
