I can’t tell you how important it is to have those middle spaces, to have spaces to explore, to grow folks, to make space for people who, maybe, have the potential to do the arts or be involved in the arts but can’t break in because they’re not in school and they’re not in the professional world of the arts or in the arts administration world. So it’s really, really important and I can’t tell you how lucky Omaha is to have this space basically as an incubator to create more art and to create more people who are creative who will then go on to be entrepreneurs, educators and culture makers in this area. play redirect heart
