On Saturday, May 21, 2022, Buffalo Arts Studio is turning our much-loved fundraiser TRIMANIA inside out and hosting Triminia.

In addition to raising funds that will help us continue to expand meaningful arts access for all people, all bar tips from the evening will be donated to F.A.T.H.E.R.S. to support them in their response to basic neighborhood needs. We will also be collecting donations for Black Love Resists in the Rust to advance their long-term community plan for mental health support.

Triminia will feature four live bands, DJ, live mural-making, interactive art installations, and dynamic video projections as well as a dance floor, multiple bars, and food trucks. 

Join the creative community on the Tri-Main Center’s six-bay, open-air loading dock for Triminia, an art party for everyone.

POST-EVENT CELEBRATION
