Join the Greater Omaha Young Professionals at Omaha After Work for a look at community development in North Downtown Omaha. Ten years ago very few people knew much about the area. Now it's a bustling art and entertainment hotbed with new attractions within walking distance to workplaces and residences.
Join us on Wednesday, Sept. 26, at 5 p.m., to hear from a few original dreamers and co-creators who built ideas, businesses and buildings in the neighborhood. Hear what struggles and inspiration they've encountered along the way, what makes their organizations tick and how you can be a part of supporting the area's progress.
