Discover creativity for every age.

At the Art Center, there’s always something inspiring to explore—hands-on workshops, book clubs, school tours, and Family Days. Our close partnership with SUNY Buffalo State and collaborations with community organizations make the Art Center a place where Buffalo comes together to learn, imagine, and celebrate the arts in all their diversity.

Explore the Burchfield Penney Art Center with host Chrisena. Examine Charles Burchfield's paintings up close, learn about his artistic process, and peek into the vault! Use the provided background reading and vocabulary to deepen students' understanding of the episode themes. Students will draw inspiration from Burchfield's words during the bonus art activity and then create their own journals.
