In collaboration with Jamestown Seneca artist Kaycee Colburn, we present a series of educational events designed to spark thought and celebrate Indigenous art and perspectives. Kaycee, who works across traditional and contemporary mediums such as beadwork, corn husk, ribbon skirts, and digital art, will lead these events. Highlights include a beading workshop symbolizing unity, an art installation titled #Hashtags addressing overlooked Indigenous issues, and a conversation on Thanksgiving myths and The Thanksgiving Play with director Rachael Jamison.

Frontline Arts Buffalo is partnering with PPG to host a workshop at Our City Buffalo’s 6th annual Anti-Displacement Summit.

This event will be held on Saturday, November 16th, from 10am to 3pm at Buffalo State University

This is an opportunity for anyone who lives in Buffalo to come educate or be educated on issues that are affecting a lot of us who live in the city, and a chance to hear about people who are trying to make it better for all. Also you’ll learn about “WHO RULES BUFFALO!”

Ujima is a founding member of Frontline Arts Buffalo also known as FAB. Established in 2018, the coalition seeks to support frontline arts and cultural organizations in Buffalo in our transition from conditions of precarity to viability. We are a collaboration among artists, arts administrators, engaged citizens, justice advocates, and policy researchers.

Ujima is an active and participating organization of the Crossroads Coalition. The coalition is comprised of over ten progressive organizations committed to a just transition and building a new, community-controlled economy in Buffalo. The collective includes activists, creators, grassroots educators, organizers, and researchers who realized that all of today’s major battles for justice are linked, and equally important.

This year Ujima is partnered with Buffalo Public Schools’ Office of Culturally & Linguistically Responsive Initiatives to launch the inaugural Lorna C. Hill Speaking Contest. Students from across the district will compete locally at their respective schools in order to qualify for the final round of the contest which will be held at the Lorna C. Hill Theater this spring. We are so excited to see the next generation of great orators and performers follow in the legacy of our late founder.
