"The Magic City" will focus on the growth of South Omaha. South Omaha
was founded in 1884 along with the creation of the Union Stockyards. By
1890, South Omaha was the fastest growing city in the country, earning
the nickname, "The Magic City." Waves of immigrants flocked to the
community to carve out a new life while working in the packinghouses,
breweries, smelting plants, and other businesses that grew from the
area. This patchwork of cultures has given South Omaha a truly unique
history.

Cost is $10 for museum members, $15 for non-members.
