El Museo Latino
El Museo Latino holds pride of place as the first Latino art and history museum in the Midwest region. Originally established in 1993 in the old Livestock Exchange Building, the museum moved to its current location in 1997 in a reconstructed brick school building. The museum offers a wide range of educational programs and exhibits for visitors of all ages, including a comprehensive overview of Latino art and culture for elementary and secondary school students. Bilingual guides show guests through the numerous exhibits and explain the significance of artworks on display; hands-on art classes are available for younger visitors.
Renowned as one of the finest Latino art museums in the country, El
Museo Latino offers residents of Omaha, Nebraska a look at the cultural
traditions and artistic talents of Latinos in Omaha and throughout the
West. Works by notable artists Ignacio Punzo, Cristina Kahlo, and Diego
Rivera have been featured in exhibitions at El Museo Latino, and art,
music, and dance classes are held regularly in conjunction with various
exhibits and events. Frequent lectures and workshops offer the
opportunity for continuing education in the arts with a focus on Latino
influences; the museum is regarded as a center for Latin-American arts
throughout the region.
El Museo Latino provides a wide array of educational options for local
schools and teachers, including demonstrations of Latino dance, art,
and musical techniques. Bilingual tour guides assist students and
teachers with hands-on activities that allow children to experience the
process of making art for themselves. Dance classes and musical
performances add to the attraction, making El Museo Latino a center for
community life and a valuable cultural addition to the Omaha
metropolitan area.
