Making a Splash for ACS!

Have you ever looked at a Jackson Pollock painting and thought "I could do that"? Well, here's your chance to prove it. The Make a Splash event at the ZGM Gallery on Elmwood Avenue lets you channel your inner Jackson Pollock and, for a $20 donation to AIDS Community Services, squirt, splash or throw paint from a 13 foot balcony onto a giant 10 foot by 18 foot canvas below. This "community art project" will then be sold, raising even more money for the fight against AIDS here in Western New York. You can Make a Splash during on any Saturday in October at the gallery (click HERE for dates and times). Video: recap of the opening reception held Friday evening.

Cameron Wows at the Riviera

Maverick organist Cameron Carpenter gave an impressive and well-received performance Sunday afternoon at the Riviera Theatre. Cameron's skill was apparent from the very first note, and he performed a variety of classical pieces, many of which aren't typically associated with the organ, including the Gershwin medley that closed the show. After the performance, VIP ticket holders attended a reception where they were able to speak to Cameron and enjoy wine and hors d'ouevres. During the show Cameron noted that the fight against HIV and AIDS is a cause close to his heart, and the performance was a benefit for AIDS Community Services. Thank you Cameron, the Riviera Theatre, media sponsor WBFO and everyone who attended this special performance! Note: I had trouble editing the video, so it's kind of choppy.
