Galentine’s Day

Galentine’s Day is a day to celebrate friendships!

Join us for our 2nd-floor highlight event & fundraiser at the Hot Shops Art Center in downtown Omaha, Nebraska. Shop from talented artisans, enjoy maker stations, see art demonstrations, eat, drink, take a selfie, connect with friends . . . and support the Hot Shops Art Center.

While Galentine’s Days is traditionally for “gals,” our event is for EVERYONE!

Net proceeds from this event will benefit the Hot Shops Art Center, helping fund essential operations including building maintenance and improvement projects, vibrant community programming, and initiatives that nurture and expand opportunities for artists.

Join us in keeping art alive, thriving, and accessible for everyone in Omaha!
