THIS JUST IN! Our next round of Open Facilities Night dates are here!

What is Open Facilities Night?

Open Facilities Night invites members of the Buffalo community to come together, collaborate, and create—free of charge—using CEPA’s facilities.

Here is everything you need to know:

•Open Facilities Night is from 6:30-9:00PM at CEPA Gallery (617 Main Street, Buffalo, NY 14203). When you arrive, please enter through the Main Street entrance. We will stop letting guests in at 8:00 PM.

• Participants will be able to work in the darkroom. Chemistry is provided, but please bring your own paper! (If you need paper, we will provide it to you for a $20 lab fee, or you can sign up for a membership.) It is preferred that those in attendance have some basic darkroom knowledge already. For those new to the darkroom, please keep an eye out for our future darkroom classes or set up an appointment for a one-on-one tutorial on our website.

• Collaging will take place in the classroom area. If you have anything you can donate (magazines, stickers, craft paper, small doodads), please feel free to bring it! Otherwise, materials will be provided.

• Participants will be able to work in our computer lab to scan film and work in the Adobe Suite. However, we are unable to accommodate digital printing until further notice.

Join us on Friday, July 17th, from 5:45-7:00 PM for a photo walk on Main Street. Led by artist Diane Bush, participants will capture the landscape of the Theater District and learn about Diane's experience shooting her series, 𝘔𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘣𝘺 𝘋𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘦 𝘉𝘶𝘴𝘩. Click the link below to sign up!

After the walk, participants are encouraged to join Diane back at CEPA for a closing party, where she will sign copies of her book. This will be the final opportunity to view 𝘔𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘣𝘺 𝘋𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘦 𝘉𝘶𝘴𝘩.

Please bring your favorite camera! Diane will be shooting on a Vintage Polaroid Camera.

This weekend, CEPA is at the Allentown Art Festival! Stop by our mobile darkroom and make a cyanotype with us!
