Partnerships between Art & Art History and our local community.

Gallery 1516

We are proud to welcome Gallery 1516 as an official partner to the UNO School of the Arts. Gallery 1516 is a venue for Nebraska and regional artists’ exhibitions which also supports the arts through fund-raising, community engagement, and encouraging young people to appreciate art’s role in society.

Talk to your professors about opportunities for paid internships and hands-on experiences at Gallery 1516; these positions are nominated, so notify faculty of your interest ahead of time.
