Buffalo Community Calendar can now be found on Our City Action Buffalo’s website!

For those who don’t know, this calendar’s founding members are community organizers introduced to one another at OCAB’s Mayoral Endorsement Committee. We saw a need for an easier way to get involved. With so many incredible organizations doing great work, let us take the scheduling load off of you. We get it, schedules can be hectic, and a lot of us are just trying to get by. Have a free day? Check out the calendar and figure out what’s going on in our city.

Buffalo Community Calendar does its best to only include free or donation-based events.

The calendar can still be found via our QR codes, our linktree, and our website. Please submit your events using the QR code in our pinned post or via our linktree. We are still operating as submission only!

Check out ourcityactionbuffalo.com to see the calendar in action!

Our DMs are always open for any questions. We love you Buffalo. by @buffalocommunitycalendar

OCAB’s Endorsement Committee is officially ACTIVE! 💙🖤💛 🤍

We helped get Sean Ryan elected and now we’re running it back 🔄🤝✅

Join us for our FIRST Endorsement Committee meeting which will consist of political education sessions where we get into the nitty gritty of who candidates are, where they’ve been, and where they hope to go. We’ll get the tea on campaign contributions, policy promises, and have the chance to ask candidates DIRECTLY their thoughts on the issues that matter most to YOU.

We will be officially endorsing candidates for NYS Assembly Seat 149 and NYS Senate District 61. We’ll discuss why these positions matter, what powers they hold and ultimately decide TOGETHER who we want to see in these seats.

Meetings will take place with our friends @BuffaloCreativeWorkshop on the following dates:

Wednesday, May 27th @ 7PM
Friday, May 29th @ 7PM
Saturday, May 30th @ 7PM

Can’t make it in person? Don’t fret! These meetings are offered via Zoom as well!

It’s OUR city, and we have every right to it.

Huge thanks to @burningbooks Burning Books for hosting today’s block party! 💥 It was powerful to be in community with so many local orgs doing the work — from @jvpbuffalo JVP Buffalo to @buffalocommunitycalendar Buffalo Community Calendar, @lola.buffalo716 Liberation For One Liberation For All, and many more. ✊🏽

Special shoutout to whoever came up with the “leaders against immigration” dumbbell game — we hit the mark literally and symbolically. 😤💪🏽 Grateful for the space, the spirit, and the resistance.

Last weekend’s Juneteenth Cookout at 1412 Jefferson was a full embodiment of joy, resistance, and community care. Deep gratitude to everyone who joined us to honor the legacy of Geraldine Pointer and Martin Sostre on the very steps of the historic Afro-Asian Bookshop.

Shoutout to the incredible artists who made the night unforgettable:
Lea the Teacha, Soyfruit, Jezeb, Yamilla Tate, A Rose in Buffalo, and Urth Nose. Your words, music, and presence moved the crowd and fueled the mission.

Big love to everyone who helped bring this space to life. Your work is building something powerful.

All proceeds supported the campaign’s fight for exoneration, the six-week Freedom School, and the long-term goal of community stewardship of 1412 Jefferson Avenue.

NEXT UP: TOMORROW (Friday 6/27) at 6:30PM Teach-Out: Police Reform and the Patronage Machine
1412 Jefferson Ave
