Worlds of Art and Hockey Team Up Against Domestic Violence
Cheese, wine, hockey, music and art - against domestic violence?
Odd bedfellows you say? Why not, I say. Domestic violence has no boundaries - touching lives across all ethnicities and socio-economic levels.
Join former Sabres defenseman Mike Robitaille, Sabres forward Andrew Peters and local artists in honoring survivors of domestic violence while raising money to help the Family Justice Center of Erie County (www.fjcsafe.org).
A New stART will take place on Tuesday, October 28, from 5:30 - 8:30PM. at Asbury Hall at The Church, 341 Delaware Avenue, Buffalo. $35 gets you admission to the art show/auction plus wine, beer, heavy hors d'oevres, music by Casperous Vine and the lovely feeling that you have done something good.
Bid on artwork of 15 local artists including 5 award-winning Buffalo Society of Artists members. Artists include: Ali Shah, Brian Nesline, Carmen Wrzos, Chastity Roberts, Diane Menchetti, Eileen Mcnamara, Elaine Kessel, Fran Noonan, Kath Schifano, Lukia Costello, Marcus L. Wise, Michael Wickham, Michelle C Wilczewski, Robert Masak, and Todd Overturf.
Tickets to A New stART are $35 each and can be purchased at www.anewstartbuffalo.com or by calling 716.558.5281.

My Favorite Buildings
This house on Richmond Avenue is very unusual for Buffalo. It stands out among its wooden neighbors not only in material but also in detail and form.
