What We Do

Omaha Mobile Stage (OMS) is a community venue for performing artists of all ages and a teaching venue to train the next generation of creatives.

Launched in 2021, our Omaha Mobile Stage program uses creative placemaking, community-based arts and cultural resources, and multidisciplinary collaboration to expand live performing arts opportunities and make space for creatives to participate in community and economic development in the Omaha–Council Bluffs metropolitan area. Our service areas include Douglas and Sarpy Counties in Nebraska,  Pottawattamie County in Iowa, and the metro’s nearby rural communities.
