A New Journey
As we turn the page to October, it is exciting to see how jazz, the arts, and our shared love for the Great American Songbook are playing a role in Buffalo’s renewal — especially in our downtown. The arts aren’t just entertainment; they bring people together, spark joy, and make our city a better place to live.
This month, we’re especially pleased to share more about ArtsBuffalo, a new step forward, building on what we’ve created together with JazzBuffalo. We believe the arts can help lead the way to a thriving city with a strong quality of life for everyone. As part of this new journey, you’ll see a link to the ArtsBuffalo Community Survey. It takes less than 10 minutes, but your voice will truly help shape the future of arts and culture in Buffalo. We’d love for you to take part!
With gratitude,
Tony Zambito
Executive Director, JazzBuffalo
