Bringing Play Beyond Our Walls
At Omaha Children’s Museum, our commitment to learning through play extends far beyond our doors. Through educational outreach, community partnerships and programs that expand access, we’re creating meaningful experiences for children and families throughout our region.
From classrooms and community celebrations to opportunities for families to experience the Museum, we’re helping ensure more children have the chance to play, learn and grow.
Educational Outreach
Taking Learning on the Road
Learning can happen anywhere! Our educational outreach programs bring the excitement of OCM directly to schools, community organizations, and events throughout the region.
Through interactive activities, engaging demonstrations and hands-on experiences, we inspire curiosity, encourage creativity and make learning fun beyond the Museum’s walls.
Community Events
Find Us Around Town!
You don’t always have to visit the Museum to experience OCM! From neighborhood celebrations and community festivals to special events throughout the region, our team brings hands-on activities and playful learning experiences to families across our community.
Welcome Fund Access Program
We believe every child deserves the opportunity to experience the joy of learning through play. Through programs designed to reduce financial and other barriers, we’re helping more children and families connect with the Museum and all it has to offer.
Welcome Fund Memberships
Our Welcome Fund Access Program helps make Museum membership more accessible to families who may otherwise face financial barriers, providing opportunities to explore, discover and create lasting memories together.
Partner School Program
Through partnerships with area schools, we help connect students with engaging educational experiences that complement classroom learning and encourage curiosity, creativity and discovery. Each partner school receives educational programming delivered directly in the classroom, a museum field trip for every classroom, and a family night where students and their caregivers enjoy an exclusive after-hours experience at the Museum.
Our Community Impact
Making a Difference Through Play
Every year, our programs and partnerships help connect thousands of children and families with opportunities to learn, explore, and grow.
