Suit up, gear up and put your powers to the test in the newest special exhibit, Super Powers, which opened October 17 at Omaha Children’s Museum. Discover your inner hero and unlock your super powers in this kid-sized super power training ground. Fly, scale, zip and smash your way through a real-life comic book city. Build your body and your bravery as you tackle challenges and complete missions throughout the exhibit and gear up with gadgets and gizmos that enhance your powers. Test your agility and nimbleness in the laser rope maze, create your own superhero comic at the comic creation station, grab a cape and take flight in the soaring simulator and gear up by creating your own cape and mask at the super powers headquarters.
The Omaha Children’s Museum staff, with the help of several local partners, conceptualized and created the entire 10,000 square foot exhibit, which took more than a year to complete. Super Powers will remain open until April 2016. Super Powers is brought to you by Nebraska Methodist College, Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital, Business Ethics Alliance, WOWT, Boy Scouts of America, NRG, Cub Scouts of America, Girl Scouts of America, Dwain Horn and Stephanie & Jack Koraleski.
