CEPA Gallery is Western New York’s only center for contemporary photo-related art. Located in Buffalo’s historic Theater District, CEPA has evolved from a small presenting venue into a full-service arts center with an international presence. It has extensive experience curating major professional exhibitions, commissioning new projects, & promoting the work of important, often under-recognized artists. The Gallery supports, encourages, & funds the projects of both established & emergent visual artists & is committed to supporting diverse ideas & perspectives. CEPA’s growing, award-winning Education Program engages well over 1,000 children & adults each year with programs ranging from one to ten weeks in length.

Last week, artist and runner Jim Cielencki stopped by CEPA to chat with CEPA Board President Laura O'Neill about his 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘣𝘺 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘦 project. Thank you to everyone who came to listen and support Jim!

What is the 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘣𝘺 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘦 project? Once in 2016 and again in 2026, Jim ran every street in Buffalo and photographed his experiences along the way.
