PAID INTERNSHIPS ARE RARE! This opportunity was made possible from a grant via New York State Department of Ag & Markets. Know someone home from college or one who stayed local? Know a person whose student loans are kicking in while they're waiting to find that job in degree field? Know a gramma that's spry and patient with GenX and Millennials? All should apply. This does not have age or income limitations. The best candidate will want to learn from BOTH collaborating organizations and will need reliable transportation.

Looking for something to do this weekend? Need a way to enjoy the sunshine? Celebrate the first day of summer at the Buffalo Central Terminal. ☀️🚂

There’s a new way to experience this iconic landmark. Our new self-guided audio tour invites you to explore the history, architecture, and ongoing transformation of the Buffalo Central Terminal at your own pace.

https://buffalocentralterminal.org/tours/

Along the way, you’ll hear stories and reflections from Buffalo voices — including Robby Takac — while discovering the beauty and legacy of this brilliant Art Deco landmark in an entirely new way, even as work continues toward reopening the Passenger Concourse.

Whether you’re a longtime supporter or visiting for the first time, this is the perfect way to appreciate the Central Terminal’s past, present, and future.

This new self-guided tour was made possible through the generosity of longtime champion David Hochman.

Plan your visit and experience the Buffalo Central Terminal like never before.

We are hosting our annual William L Gaiter Parkway Community Cleanup and planting in partnership with The Tool Library, and we would love your support.

Our mission is "beautifying our community one block at a time," and here is what we have planned:
• Trash pickup and tree stewardship along the Parkway.
• Planting mini-gardens at the corners of E. Delavan and Wyoming Ave. and Northumberland Ave
• Refreshing the three planters on Norfolk Ave
To get the job done, we need people power!!! This is a great opportunity for local students who need to complete community service hours before the end of the school year.
• A light breakfast and lunch will be provided for all volunteers.

I hope to see you this Saturday. We will meet at the corner of Norfolk Ave and E. Delavan at 10 AM. I am looking forward to working with you all to clean up our neighborhood!

Thank you!!
