Join Us For a Tour of The Assembly House

Tours take place on the second Friday and Saturday of each month at noon, from April through November.

On this guided tour, you’ll move through ever-changing sculptural environments, displays, and workshop spaces that celebrate art, architecture, preservation, and construction. Along the way, you’ll discover the vision behind this nonprofit creative hub, see the work happening inside, and discover how students and makers are building this other-worldly destination.

The Assembly House has been honored with the Pillar of NY Award from the Preservation League of NYS and an international Great Places Award from the Environmental Design Research Association and the Project for Public Spaces. It is featured in “111 Places in Buffalo That You Must Not Miss” by Brian Hayden (2023) and on the cover of “The City Creative: The Rise of Urban Placemaking in Contemporary America” by David Schalliol and David Carrier (2021).
