WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

SINGER-SONGWRITER
“Getting connected to The 402 and working with Ben was both eye-opening and a blessing to me. In just one songwriting session, I got so much clarity and insight about the songwriting process that it changed the course of my music career. To this day, I still apply what I learned in those sessions, and my songwriting is better because of it!”

Eleni Baker

“Staying connected as an artist is always important. And finding those connections in a city as close-knit as Omaha is doubly so. What Ben and The 402 are doing goes beyond helping bring art to the next generation; it helps bring the community together.”

Michael Kingery

We believe that one of the most important uses of your time as a creative is the investment you make into relationships. Being connected to others around you is a key ingredient for cultivating profound good in our culture. Opposed to being alone, the Artist Collective encourages a culture of connectivity. We do so by:

  1. Fostering a mentality of collaboration and teamwork under the belief that we are better together than separate

  2. Exposing ourselves to environments that sharpen us as practitioners and inspire us as creatives

  3. Seeking to create ways for the next generation to learn and express creativity in our community for years to come

Simply put, the Artist Collective is a group of people who are FOR people. In joining the Collective, you are becoming part of an artistic network of people who put other people first.
