Celebrate the 200th anniversary of the opening of the Erie Canal with Buffalo & the Erie Canal: An Enduring Legacy, a new exhibition exploring the rich history of our city's social and economic growth as the Western terminus of the Erie Canal. Discover the work, travel, trade, and development of our region's local waterways and in canalside neighborhoods dating back from the early 19th through the early 21st century.

Join us on June 5 from 6:00pm–7:15pm for the exhibition opening, featuring a live musical performance by Buffalo-based folk duo Sally Schaefer and Tyler Bagwell.

If you've ever wanted to be part of a book club, but can't find time to do the homework, join us! We'll check in at the beginning, then read aloud from writings on care and community we've found meaningful. Some will volunteer to read while others are invited to continue doing life while listening- washing dishes, walking, fixing dinner, caretaking on mute, and then joining for discussion after the reading is complete. Afterwards, we'll ask: what did we learn? How does it fit into our actual lives? Our goal is to let the reading be in conversation with life, and make a book club more accessible for folks who don't have time or ability to read independently.
