The Omega Museum is a cultural center and museum located in Chicago, Illinois, that provides a repository for the community to collect, preserve, educate, and display significant contributions of work by fraternities and sororities. The museum was founded in 2007 by eight brothers of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc.

The primary concept of the museum is to join with other African American Greek organizations known as the Divine 9 to create a unified program distribution of all the founders’ vision to empower the community towards progress in equality. The Omega Museum focuses on displaying historical artifacts of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity members in Chicago and identifying, promoting, and displaying the accomplishments of the men of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. in religion, education, business, science, politics, entertainment, and sports.
In addition to its collection of artifacts and memorabilia, the Omega Museum offers a variety of programs, including educational and vocational counseling, life skills counseling, financial literacy, mental health referrals, stop the violence initiatives, and community forum workshops and cultural awareness.
The Omega Museum is committed to preserving the history and achievements of African American Greek organizations and their members and promoting education, community outreach, and cultural awareness.
The Omega Museum was founded in 2007 by a group of eight members of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc.’s Rho Gamma Gamma Chapter in Chicago, Illinois. These men envisioned a facility that would provide underserved youth with the support and resources they need to succeed, while also showcasing the achievements of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity members and other prominent African Americans.
One of the museum’s key objectives is to develop various outreach programs to the immediate community. These programs are designed to help young people prepare for successful careers and make informed decisions about their futures. Additionally, the museum seeks to establish an endowment fund to support the future expansion of the Omega Museum concept.
Since its founding, the Omega Museum has made significant strides in preserving the history and legacy of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity members and promoting the positive contributions of African American Greek organizations and their members. We are proud to be a part of this important work, and we look forward to continuing to serve our community for many years to come.
