KANEKO Gallery Staff

Gallery Supervisors

KANEKO is home to some amazing young professionals who provide much needed support to office and program staff. Gallery supervisors are the face of KANEKO. They are educators who engage with visitors and promote the KANEKO mission of inclusivity, collaboration, and innovation throughout Omaha. Gallery supervisors lead student tours, assist in exhibition maintenance and oversee community event rentals in our facility.

The next time you visit, be sure to stop and chat with our gallery staff, they are an excellent resource for all things KANEKO.
