ASSEMBLY HOUSE 150 TOUR

Join the Cornell Club of Buffalo on Saturday April 21st as we tour ASSEMBLY HOUSE 150 with founder and noted architect/artist Dennis Maher ’99. Maher will take us through the journey of his organization: from idea inception and stabilizing the structure to current work with SACRA, the Society for the Advancement of Constructed Related Arts, which uses design arts to address critical needs related to neighborhood stabilization, preservation, and workforce training in Western New York.

ASSEMBLY HOUSE 150 is an experimental art/architecture space, specializing in the design and display of imaginative environments, furnishings, and aesthetic objects, while hosting public exhibitions, educational programs, and events that enhance the sense of wonder within everyday surroundings.

ASSEMBLY HOUSE 150 serves the Buffalo, NY community as an art/design/education incubator. The organization provides opportunities for students and apprentices to participate in projects that enhance their understanding of the built environment while teaching skills in the building arts.  It hosts public exhibitions that support the theme of the “urban imagination” and we catalyze projects in collaboration with building industry tradespeople.

ASSEMBLY HOUSE 150 is located at 150 Edward Avenue, Buffalo NY 14201.

The Club will be meeting Dennis on the site at 10:30AM. Please dress weather appropriate as the church is not heated. Afterwards join us for a dutch-treat lunch at Betty’s, just down the street!

Registration is limited to 20 attendees, reserve your spot now!

Burchfield-Penney Tour

On Saturday, December 2, Nancy Spector (Agriculture and Life Sciences ‘79; BFA School of the Art Institute of Chicago ’90) will lead us on a tour of the galleries at the Burchfield-Penney based upon a theme near and dear to all Cornellian hearts: SEEING RED.  Tapping into her knowledge as a current Burchfield-Penney docent, Nancy will facilitate a conversation allowing participants to look at and learn about selected artworks with the theme and express their own reactions and interpretations.

After the tour, those who wish are welcome to stick around for a self-funded “healthy-style” lunch at the Museum Café run by Don Wharfe, formerly manager at the Buffalo Yacht Club & Albright-Knox.

Plan to arrive by 10:15 on December 2nd, cost is $5 so register now, there are only seven spots left. Any Questions? Please contact Jim Schneider ’87 at jss73@cornell.edu.
