Celebrating Omaha’s African American Arts & Culture
“Omaha means OMAHA.” Preston Love
Hello Viewers!! A few weeks ago I was helping a friend put the finishing touches on her wedding. She asked me to go with her to the reception site, which was Loves’ Jazz & Art Center. I was completely amazed by the center’s appeal when I walked through the doors. I knew immediately that I had to do a show about Loves’ Jazz. The center has been celebrating African American arts in Omaha for three years and is one of many renovations taking place in the historic north Omaha area.
In the short website documentary, the late Preston Love states, “Omaha means OMAHA”. I find that quote to be a common thread when I’m talking with Omaha natives. There are so many people like Preston Love, who are from Omaha, moved away for a bit, and choose to return to the comforts of home. The Loves’ Jazz & Art Center captures the magic that is innately Omaha (a.k.a home).
Oh, I should tell you that the wedding reception was beautiful. Loves’ Jazz serves as a wonderful backdrop for the celebration of marriage.
Thanks for watching and Blessings!!

The Making of Episode 1
Thanks for watching the first episode of eXposeOmaha.com!! As stated in the video, the purpose of the show is to expose Omaha’s best features and it’s little known secrets. Every week I plan to highlight one of the metro area’s irresistible attributes. This first episode is just a “springboard” used to see if I really could get in front of the camera…setting aside all nervous jitters. Also, I thought a few basic statistics from the area would be a good place to start. If you have any suggestions for future Omaha features please email me and don’t forget to watch every week so we can eXposeOmaha together!!
