The Lincoln Arts Council Multicultural Arts Initiative is a project that will primarily focus on preserving, cataloging, and educating the community about our rich cultural artistic traditions in Lincoln. Lincoln contains a vast wealth of diversity that many of us are not aware of. Wonderful arts and traditions have come from many countries and have made their home here.
Have you ever heard anyone play the tar, the oud or the cuatro? Find more information about these artists below. Looking for a great place to eat? We have compiled a list of fantastic ethnic markets and restaurants that showcase the variety of cuisine in Lincoln.
