Love Canal at 20 Exhibit
The Scientific/Environmental Anniversary Exhibit focuses on Love Canal, perhaps the country's most infamous hazardous waste site.

Meyer Family Collection
TThe prints in the Meyer Family Collection were created by artists working under the Graphic Arts Division of the WPA's Federal Arts Project from 1935 to 1943. They offer a broad spectrum of technical, stylistic and representational diversity and give a look at a unique historical moment, in which artists, a burgeoning national audience and the government, were in an unprecedented conversation about the rightful relationship between American art and society. They will be on exhibit in the UB Art Gallery, Center for the Arts, through Sept. 13. Gallery hours are Wed.-Sat., 10:30 a.m.-8 p.m.; Sunday, noon to 5 p.m.
