Over the last 10 years, Holland Performing Arts Center has blossomed into a crown jewel of Omaha’s performing arts and culture. Omaha Performing Arts celebrated Holland Center’s 10th anniversary Saturday at Holland Stages Festival, featuring the kind of eclectic programming for which the Holland has become known.

From Bandaloop’s high-flying acrobatics on the Holland’s East Wall to the rich jazz heritage of Delfeayo Marsalis to Conor Oberst’s performance in the Kiewit Concert Hall, view our photo essay below.
