Part of M&T Bank 4th Friday @ Tri-Main Center
“Recognizing art teachers as artists, not only acknowledges teachers’ talents and skills, it also offers inspiration to their students as they develop into creatives; working on problem-solving skills, finding their unique voice, and building stamina and grit; all things students can use in any part of their personal and professional lives. Additionally, an exhibition such as the one Buffalo Arts Studio will be hosting for the Buffalo Public Schools reinforces the importance of art(s) education, provides students with a powerful model of lifelong learning and creative exploration, and actively engages the community they serve by using art to build valuable connections and jumpstart important conversations.” —Dr. Michele Agosto, Director of Arts for Buffalo Public Schools
“Buffalo Public School art teacher’s upcoming exhibition, el·e·men·tal, offers a window into the creative practices of those helping shape the next generation. Our strong partnership goes back to the start of this organization. There is a special beauty in showcasing their work alongside that of our Jump Start youth program, as we share a commitment to nurturing creativity, inspiring young minds, and ensuring that the transformative power of art touches every corner of our community.” —Alma Carrillo, Executive Director
