Handmade in Buffalo

During your visit to our region you have undoubtedly discovered that Western New York is home to world-class architecture by the most significant architects of the 19th and 20th centuries. This extraordinary legacy includes treasured works such as homes designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and the spectacular Roycroft Campus in East Aurora. These historic structures incorporate unparalleled craftmanship by skilled artisans working in a number of materials. Craftmanship of that caliber is alive and well today, and there are many opportunities available for you to visit an artisan's studio, view them working and purchase or order a handcrafted item worthy of the highest standards of the Craftsman Movement. We have profiled 10 artisans/artist spaces working in wood, glass, clay, metal or printmaking. Their work has garnered national (and in some cases international) attention. We invite you to visit them and make your experience of design excellence in our area more complete. Download the brochure here check them out below.
