Support Hallwalls, Support Buffalo

Keep our cultural sector thriving

Support Hallwalls, Support Buffalo image

Let's do this together.

National funding for the arts is stretched thin. The economic impact of the arts is undeniable—when arts organizations close, people stop showing up downtown, and the ripple effects are felt across our city.

Supporting Hallwalls means supporting artists and our greater community. For over 50 years, Hallwalls has been a launch pad for local, national, and international artists—one of the only places in downtown Buffalo where artists of all disciplines are paid to be innovative and the public is invited to engage directly with their vision.

In 2025, Hallwalls:

  • Put more than $70,000 into the hands of artists
  • Hosted over 100 free & low-cost events and programs
  • Brought 10,000+ people to downtown Buffalo

Your investment keeps Buffalo’s cultural life vibrant. It ensures artists can create, audiences can gather and downtown remains alive with energy and creativity.

Choose the level that’s right for you (see below) —Patron, Partner, or Visionary—and know your support makes a lasting impact.

With gratitude,

Parrish Gibbons
Executive Director, Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center
