Ah… Twas indeed the party everyone still talks aboot ….The Scottish Festival Pre Game Party at NYBP. There were bagpipes all over the house, kilts, Scottish drinking songs, more kilts, Scottish beer releases, wool socks in the summer, fiddles, Scottish tales, yet more kilts…but the best part… it’s about to happen again. This years festivities begin at 7pm August 18th with Scottish music and drinking songs performed by Tom Keefer and his band Celtic Cross out in the Beirgarten beginning at 7pm. The Buffalo Bagpipe Band Club will take a few ceremonial parades throughout the entire brewery before performing in the Beirgarten and Stone’s Throw, our Special Edition Release of a Scottish Wee Heavy Ale will be pouring all evening. Kilts are optional, but if you don’t have one, you have to explain to a very large Scottish man why you aren’t wearing one at this one of a kind celebration where Scotland comes to The Beer Project. Lang may yer rum leek! Cheers!

Event Details

The recent events in Virginia were upsetting to Americans across the country. Let’s get our friends, family and neighbors together for a “flashlight walk” in our beautiful and welcoming North Buffalo neighborhood, to celebrate and stand up for the beauty of diversity, and the importance of fighting against racism and discrimination in our community. It’s a good reminder that positive change starts with what you do in your own community.

Local start up group Unite by Night is organizing this small, neighborhood walk by flashlight together, simply to congregate with our neighbors, those we know and those who we don’t yet.

This is to come together as the diverse and welcoming community that we are, and to help shine light on the NFJC WNY, which is the first local organization the Unite by Night nonprofit group has devoted a year of service to. To learn more about Unite By Night check out: https://www.facebook.com/UnitebyNight/ and this great story on WBFO: http://news.wbfo.org/term/unite-night

Please bring and invite your friends and family, and have a flashlight to light our walk together. Strollers, wagons, dogs on leashes all welcome to join in.

We’ll meet at North Park Academy lawn in front of the flag pole and after a nice group photo or two, will begin our walk around the neighborhood.

To learn more about the important work of the National Federation for Just Communities WNY (NFJCWNY) please check out their website and consider attending their “Diversity Dash” in Delaware Park October 1! http://www.nfjcwny.org/

Hope to see you there!

The Backyard Atelier is an outdoor, play-based early childhood program that draws inspiration from the Adventure Playground movement (playwork), Reggio Emilia Approach and Forest schools of Europe.

Event Details

Buffalo has a long history of enthusiasm for the arts, and this year will be no exception! This summer, the Fourth Annual Jack Craft Fair, Buffalo’s premier alternative craft fair, takes place on Saturday, August 19th at Buffalo Outer Harbor. The fair aims to revolutionize the way people think about craft and provide an opportunity for consumers to purchase quality, handmade products that can’t be found at any other local festival.

The fair was conceived by Samantha Epps, a Buffalo born artist and entrepreneur who saw the need for an alternative to the traditional “craft fair.” “There are so many highly industrious, innovative, and modern crafts that today’s artists are producing. I felt a need to create an event that would expose this idea of modern arts and crafts,” Epps says.

The fair’s main attraction is a vendor market of over 100 highly curated artists, but the event strives to be much more than that. In conjunction with the vendor market, the event will feature live music from local musician and contender on ‘The Voice,’ Keith James, lunch from local food trucks and a day-long schedule of FREE drop in workshops.

“The workshop component is very important to the event’s identity,” says Khrista Tabak, the Workshop Director for the Jack Craft Fair. “Our mission is to make the art of crafting accessible to any and all individuals. All of our workshops are free and require no pre-registration- simply drop in and learn a new skill!”

This year, the Jack Craft Fair will be partnering with local artists and institutions to offer 6 free workshops: Origami Book Sculptures, Smartphone Photography, Marbled Bowls and Beads, Bubble Printing and My Mark Matters: an exploration of mixed media.

Previously at up-and-coming venues such as Larkin Square, Buffalo Riverworks, and Central Terminal, this year’s event will take place at Wilkeson Pointe in Buffalo Outer Harbor. “An outdoor venue is something we’ve been looking forward to for a while. This expansion allows us to grow our vendor market and accommodate an infinite amount of attendees, while also being a part of Buffalo’s waterfront revival.”

Samantha Epps works for a local advertising start up, Scale Digital Marketing, and was the former Director of Events at Larkin Square. Khrista Tabak is a high school and elementary school teacher for Depew Schools and the former Program Director at the WNY Book Arts Center. The two young women take pride in their Buffalo roots and through this event, strive to put Buffalo on the map as a progressive city with strong ties to art and culture.

The event offers free parking and admission, public bathrooms and easy access if traveling by foot or bike via the Queen City Bike Ferry.

Event Details

Join us on August 19th to view and document “There Here” an amazing new project by the artist Kim Beck. In There Here, a skywriter will draw arrows in the sky pointing to the US/Canadian border located over the Niagara River in Buffalo, New York. Commissioned as part of the exhibition Wanderlust: Actions, Traces, Journeys 1967-2017, the arrows will be photographed and then appear on several billboards dotted throughout the city, fixing the directional language onto signs.

Participate! Viewers of the skywriting can take photographs of the arrows and upload them to social media with the tag #ubskywriting and #ubwanderlust. Please send high resolution images to the artist at kimbeck@idealcities.com. She may choose one of these images to use on a billboard!

Bastard

Palissimo Company in residence @ Adam Mickiewicz Library and Dramatic Circle

Torn Space Theater hosts the NYC-based performance company Palissimo as part of its second annual RESPONSE Festival. Choreographed by Pavel Zuštiak, Palissimo’s Czechoslovakian-born artistic director, Bastard is the first part of the company’s The Painted Bird trilogy, inspired by Jerzy Kosinski’s controversial 1956 novel of the same name, integrating dance, video and visual projections with live music. This interpretation features a collaboration between Bessie award-winning soloist Jaro Vinarský and an ensemble of professional and non-professional dancers drawn from the community.

“It’s worth losing your bearings for a while in the enigmatic atmosphere of this high-art haunted house.” – The New York Post

///// RICK MAGUIRE FROM PILE

Pile is an American indie rock band from Boston,Massachusetts. Starting as the solo act of Rick Maguire in the late 2000s, Pile has been a collective since the release of “Magic Isn’t Real” in 2010. To date, Pile has released six full-length albums and two singles. In recent years the band has gained increasing popularity, becoming a prominent part of the Boston indie rock scene and frequently touring through both the US and Europe. While remaining outside of the mainstream, the band has been repeatedly recognized for captivating a particularly enthusiastic and dedicated fan base. Their sound has been described by The Village Voice as a “distinct blend of melted guitars” with “howling-wolf vocals and shred-free guitar harmonies”

Information about our organization:
Sugar City is Buffalo’s only legal, DIY, volunteer-run, all-ages
performance venue. Accordingly, all events at Sugar City are drug and
alcohol-free and end before 11pm. Our goal is to provide an
alternative space to share and create art and community projects based
on participatory culture and a do-it-together attitude. Events and
initiatives include, but are not limited to music, films, poetry
readings, a zine library, meeting space, art gallery, workshops, and
more. We want to break down the barriers of what is and isn’t “art”
because in some way everyone is an artist.

Ah, wine and investing. Both can seem intimidating, conjuring up pictures of snooty sommeliers or aggressive traders. But, both can also be super approachable—at least, once you know what you’re doing.

Get the best of both in this special class, combining crash courses in wine and investing. Whether you already know the ins and outs of the markets (or, how to pick up the perfect bottle for any situation), or you don’t know the difference between a stock and a bond (or, between a rose and a white zinfandel), a night with us promises to be fun and illuminating.

Together, we’ll cover the basics, as well as things like how much you should aim to invest and how to know what a bottle of wine is worth. Best of all, we’ll sample wine and feast on some food from Giancarlo’s along the way.

Event Details

As summer decides on whether to stick around or not, American Repertory Theater of WNY will come out of the company’s season hiatus with one of the first events of the 2017-18 season. August will feature an one-night only staged reading of Mark Humphrey’s AN INQUIRY INTO THE FATE OF THE U.S.S. PEQUOD at the company’s 330 Amherst location. The reading will feature Buffalo actor Stan Klimecko and the return on Jack Hunter as he will share his directorial eye with the project.

In describing THE FATE OF THE U.S.S. PEQOUD, Humphrey offered a brief insight into the piece, (the work) “is a one person show with the actor playing Capt Ahab. Simply put, Capt Ahab is explaining to the investors what happened to the ship. He talks about his time at sea, including his brushes with Moby Dick, the giant white whale.”
The event will also feature an after-show Q & A with playwright Mark Humphrey, Mr. Klimecko and Mr. Hunter. Showtime is 8 pm on August 26th at the 330 Amherst Street performance space and is free to the public.

In the 2017-18 season, American Repertory Theater of WNY will continue to highlight this local playwrights work with a full production of Humphrey’s ROOMMATES for the September Curtain Up! slot. “Great stuff, immediately felt like a Seijun Suzuki film on stage to me”, said director Drew McCabe on Humphrey’s original piece. Suzuki, best known for his 1966 film Tokyo Drifter, pioneered a genre of B-movie gangster movies and inspired contemporary film-makers like Quentin Tarantino. McCabe (who has received an Artie nomination for his direction on the ART/WNY March 2016 production, THE HOUSE OF BLUE LEAVES) returns back to ART/WNY for another directorial gig and has assembled a great ensemble including Victor Morales, Michael J Starzynski and Brett Klaczyk for this time around.

Mark Humphrey without giving away too much on his work, “ROOMMATES is about two men who have to stay overnight in the same apartment. One man is a former stock broker who owes money to a gangster, the other has been sent by the gangster to keep him safe.” Humphrey’s overview of what the piece means to him and audiences gives ROOMMATES substances instead of some sort of criminal and victim predictability “The main focus of the piece though, is what we dreamed of becoming, as opposed to what we became” concluded Humphrey.

American Repertory Theater of WNY’s Artistic Director Matthew LaChiusa views the relationship between the company and Humphrey’s works as a continuing creative feature in ART/WNY’s theatrical season. “I’ve always enjoyed Mark’s skills as a storyteller and his ability to write for theater.” Said LaChiusa. “His works fit right into the artistic vision of the company and throughout the past few seasons reflect exactly the type of works we love to present at ART/WNY.”

Humphrey’s list of works at the company include two one acts submitted into the Local Playwright’s showcase and the most recent Artie Award winning production of his work LITTLE ROBERT based on the final evening spent by legendary blues player, Robert Johnson. “I still regard that work (LITTLE ROBERT) as one of the top-ten productions at ART/WNY,” LaChiusa on the successful history of Humphrey’s works. “The acting of Robert Insana and Hugh Davis, set and lighting design were outstanding. Overlooked as par for the course when it comes to smaller theaters, but outstanding nonetheless.”

Mark Humphrey’s ROOMMATES is schedule to open on September 7th and run to the 23rd as part of the Curtain Up! celebrations. All showtimes are at 8 pm at ART/WNY’s 330 Amherst Street performance space.

Humphrey’s two works will also kickstart a season filled with original works including 2013 Young Playwright Showcase finalist, David Moran, will see his full-length work, AN INCH SHORT & A DAY LATE. Drew McCabe picks up his second directorial job with ART/WNY as this work reflecting Millennial rockers falling in and out of love features the 2017-18 season return of Rick Lattimer, Brett Klaczyk, Diane DiBernardo but also see alumni Nick Lama (A BEHANDING IN SPOKANE), Ben Caldwell (THE UNDERPANTS) and Lisa Miller (THE HOUSE OF BLUE LEAVES) as well as finally making her ART/WNY debut, Becky Globus. The current production days are scheduled for January 4th-20th. Then opening in May 2018 is the local playwright showcase THE RAIN DOG PROJECT which will feature original works based on the music of Tom Waits. Directorial overseeing of this presentation will be handled by Nick Lama and Catherine Burkhart. Works and actors selected for this showcase will be announced in August.

Sometimes stuff just happens – it’s a fact of life. When it does, understand how having the right coverage in place can make the crappy situations in life a little more bearable.

Whether you’re seeking to understand how to financially protect you or your family (or, how to mix up the perfect round of cocktails for any occasion), or you don’t understand ways to address different financial needs during various stages of life (or, you don’t know the difference between a mojito and mint julep), spend the evening with us and we will teach you the basics.

You already paid for school—so you really shouldn’t be paying with your life. If you want to learn more about the smart ways to pare down your student loans, as well as how to manage them without sacrificing your financial future in other areas, this is the one for you.

It starts with understanding, just like college did. When you choose this class, you’ll learn how to discern exactly what you’re paying each month, more about options for repayment or forgiveness, how to develop a plan for paying it all back, and how your loans influence your overall financial picture.

Whether you’ve been pretending your loans don’t exist, or checking in on your progress daily, learning even more can help give you the tools to take on the dreaded student debt.

So join our team of down-to-earth advisors to learn a thing or two, hang out with recent graduates in shoes like yours, and even—seriously—make thinking about your loans a little more fun.
