    Very nice and clean museum. This place always has various events going on that support the community. The ones I remember were they played Coco outside in their courtyard and they also hosted Las Posadas inside. They have great exhibits, some permanent and some temporary. It is right in the heart of South Omaha so it is walkable to food and other necessities.

    The artwork and history is definitely worth the time. My mom and I had fun painting our Dia de los Muertos skulls today.

    I had a great time with a beautiful woman, we learned a lot about the history of migrant workers, and the strikes that took place. We then got to see some lovely art afterwards.

    It was okay. I think it needs another floor or something.

    Small but the photography exhibit was amazing. I think if they had more support and funding they would be doing great things. I loved the staff and the environment. Worth making the trip out to visit.

    Enjoyed the photography and painting exhibits and the displays of interviewed South Omaha Latino residents from early 1900s to 1980s or thereabouts. Very interesting.

    They are under renovation right now, so only half the museum has displays. I look forward to visiting again next year when they're done.

    We went for a juried art show, Arte Latinx. It had a variety of hanging art, just a few sculpture/ceramic and one large installation on the floor. It was an interesting variety, both type and skill level. We enjoyed it. There are artist workshops and discussions scheduled through the closing on October 11th. The workshops only have 15 slots, so if interested check out info online through Museo Latino.

    Went to see the Frida Kahlo exhibit, it was very interesting, and I very much enjoyed my visit

  • 3/5 RL P. 4 years ago on Google
    As a Hispanic American I support their efforts and applaud their attempt. It seems though that so much more could be done to show various elements of Latino culture. It's disappointing that the Museum seems to be old and run down, when so much more could be done to respect and highlight our rich heritage.
