Buffalo, NY – Local community leaders are celebrating the similarities between Buffalo and New Orleans with three days of film, comedy and music beginning Saturday.
The Second Line Cities Weekend caps off with an appearance Monday by the Rebirth Brass Band of New Orleans. But the two culturally rich cities have more in common than a love of music. They also share some challenges.
The events are sponsored by the South Buffalo Education Center to benefit out-of-school youth.
