Support the Inclusive Arts in Omaha

At WhyArts, we believe everyone deserves access to high-quality arts experiences, regardless of economic, physical, or cognitive barriers. As changes in federal funding continue to affect community arts education, the generosity of local donors, foundations, and businesses has become more important than ever in ensuring our adaptive, inclusive programs remain free and accessible to Omaha's children, older adults, veterans, and individuals with disabilities.
