THE POWER OF US:
A Community Conversation
Be part of the kickoff event, a town hall–style conversation series designed to build civic knowledge, strengthen community engagement and inspire meaningful action on the policies shaping the lives of Nebraskans.
Our first conversation features Stacey Abrams, nationally renowned voting rights advocate, attorney and former Georgia State Representative. Abrams will share her powerful insights on organizing, civic participation and how each of us can connect our values to our votes.
DJ Crabrangucci will set the vibe before the program kicks off—arrive early to enjoy music and energy as the crowd gathers. Doors open at 5:15 p.m.
Engage with our community partners Civic Nebraska and League of Women Voters of Greater Omaha. Volunteers will be ready to answer your questions, share resources and help you get registered to vote.
Tickets are $10 each. Be part of a powerful community committed to action, equity and lasting change.
