Then, now, and for generations to come! 💛

For 50 years, Omaha Children’s Museum has been shaped by families, volunteers and a community that believes in the power of play.

Follow along for 50 for 50 Fridays as we share stories celebrating the people and moments that make OCM special.

Thanks to longtime supporters and friends of the Museum, Susan and Mike Lebens, all gifts made through December 31 will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $50,000, supporting programs like the Welcome Fund Access Program and Partner School Program.

Be part of the next 50 years. Give at ocm.org/donate.

“What if?” Two little words, so many possibilities. 💡
