Culture & Inclusion

Omaha Conservatory of Music commits to becoming a diverse, equitable, inclusive, and anti-racist institution where music education is made as accessible as possible for all members of the community.

The Conservatory strives to be equitable by providing programming opportunities to everyone at the Conservatory and throughout the community.

We provide classes in our neighborhoods, bringing musical education to those who cannot come to the Conservatory. We provide financial aid to families to make music education available for anyone’s budget. We provide select classes and concerts at no or low cost to allow everyone the opportunity to enrich their lives with music.

The Conservatory accepts everyone regardless of their age, gender, race, sex, creed, religion, culture, nationality, sexual orientation, political affiliations, disability (visible and invisible).

We do not tolerate hate-speech, racism, violence, bigotry, harassment, bullying, and any abusive actions including threats. We are here to have an open conversation to build an inclusive community where we can learn to understand one another better through musical education and appreciation.

We want our musical community to be accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability.

We continue to take steps to increase the accessibility and usability of our campus with the goal that we are never turning away a student from musical education due to ability or financial and transportation constraints.
