  • Guest Speaker Presentation Topics
    2017 Guest Speaker Presentation Topics P a g e | 1 Explore Buffalo Guest Speaker Program COST: $75 Includes a one hour presentation, featuring a 45-minute talk followed by 15 minutes for discussion/Q&A. PLEASE NOTE: Talk availability is subject to the availability of our volunteer docents. We will do our best to accommodate your preferences. Talk Topics Abraham Lincoln in Buffalo & Western New York Buffalo’s presidential history is arguably the country’s most significant, with exception of Washington D.C. We are well aware that Millard Fillmore and Grover Cleveland were residents and political stalwarts of Buffalo when elected, and that William McKinley was assassinated and Theodore Roosevelt was inaugurated here in September 1901. But what about Abraham Lincoln? Is there a chapter in Western New York’s presidential book regarding his presence and legacy? This talk will reveal the answers to these questions as it describes Lincoln’s four visits to Buffalo and Western New York. Art’s Up: The Buffalo Fine Arts Academy (BFAA) and its Impact Near and Far The parent organization of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery is the BFAA which was established in 1862 and for over 150 years has been an ambassador for Buffalo — locally, nationally, and globally. In this talk, we will briefly review BFAA’s history, including key events and “firsts” such as being the first major art museum to have a woman director. We’ll focus on a selection of people throughout the years who’ve had significant influence, such as our own “Monuments Men” who helped recover Nazi-looted art during World War II.

Brown, Kleinhans Music Hall Management, Inc. Denise Prince, Erie Community College Kleinhans Music Hall, a National Historic Landmark, was built at the behest of philanthropists Edward and Mary Kleinhans. Constructed during the height of the Great Depression, Kleinhans received additional funds from the Public Works Administration. World-renowned architect Eliel Saarinen (1873-1950), with assistance from son Eero Saarinen (1910-1961) and Charles Eames (1907- 1978), designed a modern masterpiece destined to become the home of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. Acoustical considerations affecting Saarinen’s design and the resulting acoustics of the hall will be discussed. This tour explores the music hall, including its backstage areas and other behind-the-scenes spaces, as well as the hall’s picturesque setting on Frederick Law Olmsted’s “Symphony” Circle.

The edge of growth in industry, agriculture, and manufacturing from back then, to now bolstering high tech industry and engineering, S both medically and scientifically, which are eminating once again. The edge of one of the five Great Lakes, Lake Erie, and the edge of one of the longest International borders from Buffalo to Niagara Falls, Buffalo has ex- perienced its high and lows of any great city over the decades, which suffered economic downturns of industry and development. However, Buffalo is now a city poised on the edge of an already underpinning of a long awated re-birth. From the great prosperous days of the Erie Canal, the Steel and Power Plants taking advantage of the abundance of the flow- ing waters of Lake Erie and the Niagara River, are all significant factors, which helped to propel Buffalo and Western New York to one of the top ten cities at the turn of the 20th Century. This rise brought with its wealth and power, both brokers and philanthropists, which grew with it our world renowned Arts and Entertain- ment Institutions, including the Albright Knox Art Gallery, the Buffalo History Museum, the Buffalo Museum of Science, the Buffalo Zoo, Kleinhans Music Hall - home to our Buffalo Philharmonic - and the achitecural phenomenon - Shea’s Theater.
