The Passageway Gallery

The Passageway Gallery We are a cooperative gallery established in 1981 giving local artists a place to show and sell their work.

Our location is in the historic Poppleton Block, built in 1886 by Andrew Poppleton. The Poppleton Block was designated an Omaha Landmark in 1982, and is listed on the National Register of Historical Places. Andrew Jackson Poppleton (1830-1896) was the second mayor of Omaha, in office for a few months from July to September of 1858. After his stint as mayor, Poppleton was a prominent real estate bu

sinessman and lawyer. Poppleton Street in Omaha is named after the former mayor. The gallery operates completely through the volunteer efforts of the artists whose work is on display. Every artist member spends 2 - 4 shifts each month greeting visitors, handling sales functions and performing duties necessary to the successful operation of the gallery. Each visitor is able to visit with an actual artist member of the gallery. Membership is held to a total of 22 artists, providing a blend of two dimension and three dimensional art that is sure to please many different artistic tastes. The Passageway is a very active participant in the Old Market Gallery Walks held once a month in the summer and spring. First Friday openings each month feature one or two gallery member's works, accompanied by hors d'oeuvres and refreshments. Gallery Walks and First Fridays are free and open to the public.

Not officially summer, but it sure feels like it.

The photograph here is by our Rachel Brodeur Rachel Holder. Rachel's photography often features everyday things framed from her perspective that catches your eye and pulls you in and sticks with you afterword. Her work often features the city of Omaha, the rural areas surrounding it and nature you can find here. Seeing our local sites captured in Rachel's eye often leaves the viewer with a sense of curiosity in their surroundings! We love Rachel's work, see more from her at our gallery! Open everyday !

✨ Small Business Saturday Postponed to SUNDAY✨

With the winter storm moving in, we’ve made the difficult decision to POSTPONE our Small Business Saturday festivities tomorrow at Passageway Gallery. We would love to celebrate with you SUNDAY instead! Your safety (and our artists’ safety) comes first. ❄️

We’re sending you all the cozy vibes to enjoy a quiet snow day at home, and we invite you to visit us on a calmer day this holiday season to browse original art, prints, ornaments, jewelry, and more from our local artists. 🎄🖼️

Thank you for supporting small, local, and handmade — we appreciate you more than you know. 💛
