It's unlike anything we've seen in the community and really around the country. We truly have a very special facility here in Omaha.

This program will be an incredible beginning in the life of the Holland Performing Arts Center. With a focus on Omaha, we've designed an evening incorporating outstanding local artists and ensembles along with national touring artists, with something for everyone to enjoy.

An integral part of the mission of Omaha Performing Arts is to bring the very best in national and international touring artists to our community.

You'll also notice the audience and the performers are in the same room. That gives the sense that the sound comes directly to them. Acoustically, it's a much different type of experience than many people have had a chance to try.

We are named one of the Top 10 tourist trains in the country.

So, Vermilion in Bloom has classes like this on a year-round basis to get the community involved. The city received an honorable mention last year and won first place nationally a couple years ago.
