Buffalo Obscura is very happy to announce that all three of Julian Montague’s large scale “Public Health Posters” have popped up again, this time in Buffalo’s Theatre District. You can see two of them in the windows at dPost, located at 678 Main St. and one at Buffalo Place, located at 671 Main St. A very big thank you to dPost and Buffalo Place for the use of their windows, and to Julian for creating beautiful art with an important message about keeping everyone safe during the time of COVID 19. On view until further notice. Learn more about the artist here: Montague Projects

We are in the planning stages for future in person events for 2021 as soon as it is safe to host them again.

With that in mind, we’re welcoming artists working in all aspects of the visual and performing arts to reach out to us at the link below and let us know if you’d like to get involved. We keep submissions on file and review all of them each time we plan an event. Our shows are one-night-only pop up events in obscure locations in and around Buffalo.

If you’re an artist, we’d love to hear from you, and please help us spread the word! Participate

2020 took an unexpected turn for everyone. Given the current state of the world, like many, we had to put some projects on hold and shift our focus to finding new ways to approach our mission. We are happy to report that plans are in the works for a multi-venue installation in July. We’ve been holding artists meetings via zoom and making preparations that we’ll be ready to announce very soon. Here are some of the artists who will be presenting their amazing work with us! Stay tuned for more information!

The word is out and we are here to confirm it. Our 8th pop up show is in the works. “The City Beyond the Falls: Pop Up Art Show” will be held on Main Street in the city of Niagara Falls, NY. We met with some of the artists today and planning is in the works
