Buffalo State College’s Theater Department, dance program, and Casting Hall Productions invite you to join us for Legacy in Dance today, April 21, at 12:30 and 7:00 p.m. and tomorrow, April 22, at 7:00 p.m. in Upton Hall’s Warren Enters Theatre.

Legacy in Dance combines a video montage with live performance to celebrate dance at Buffalo State College. As part of the college’s 150th anniversary celebration, Legacy in Dance takes a look at the collaborations between faculty choreographers and student artists over the past three decades. The video is a collection of works by Daphne Finnegan and Janet Reed, Buffalo State emeriti dance faculty members; Leanne Rinelli, guest contributing artist; Naila Ansari, Joy Guarino, Michael Lambert, and Melissa VanOsch, current dance faculty members; and Carlos Jones, associate dean of the School of Arts and Sciences.

The performers represent students across campus who come to dance via many pathways, including dance minors, arts and letters majors, and those with a passion for movement. Buffalo State dance performances offer the opportunity to dive deeply into why and how dance is created and experienced. This presentation explores a variety of approaches to the creation of dance, several genres, and their significance to the art form.

Tickets can be purchased in person at the Rockwell Hall Box Office, by phone at (716) 878-3005, or online.

The campus community is invited to observe the Anne Frank Project's (AFP) annual spring social justice festival, “MyStory Social Justice Day,” today, April 20, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in the Campbell Student Union Social Hall.

For more than a decade, AFP has produced this spring event targeting local high school students, their teachers, and schools by bringing students to campus and immersing them in a day of kinesthetic and engaging social justice programming—AFP style.

This provides a great opportunity for the campus community to view AFP's story-based work and meet more than 100 future Bengals! Please feel free to stop by any portion of MyStory Day and be a part of Buffalo State's commitment to story-based learning, provocative special guest-led sessions, and creative recruitment.

Visit the AFP website to view the MyStory Day program. If you have questions, please contact Jonise Hall, AFP festival coordinator.

Buffalo State College’s Anne Frank Project is thrilled to host its 14th annual social justice festival, AFP 2022: Healing through Stories, in person October 12–14. We seek proposals from all disciplines, cultures, and communities reflecting on stories that have healed or will or can heal the personal, social, national, and global wounds caused by the pandemic. The sharing of unique skill sets, knowledge, and approaches to healing is an act of both social and personal justice. It was Anne Frank's wish to "repair the world." This year's festival is an opportunity for all of us to actively respond to that challenge. We need you and your healing stories now more than ever.

AFP invites presentations, workshops, art exhibits, and performances reflecting on this year's theme. In keeping with the kinesthetic and experiential pillars of the Anne Frank Project, we ask that all session proposals be crafted as one-third theory and two-thirds practice. Submit your proposal today. To learn more about the Anne Frank Project, please?visit the AFP website,

If you have questions or need any help with your proposal, please contact Jonise Hall, festival coordinator.
