Cool art gallery. Good mix of Burchfield art and local art. Nice layout. Wish I had visited sooner in my time here. Some cool paintings from Buffalo. $10 ticket was absolutely worth the price. Nice way to spend some time.

Very nice but small museum with beautiful architecture and pleasant viewing. We were staying at the nearby Hotel Henry and this was a very nice side jaunt as we were short of time, but if I were coming for the museum I would definitely tailor my visit to the exhibitions rather than the collection. Well maintained with a nice gift shop.

Glorious gallery punching well above its weight and certainly the best game in town with the Albright Knox presently closed for some major renos. Well put together galleries featuring Buffalo and upstate NY artists. Some important regional and national pieces here. 2nd Friday each month is free. Small but well thought out gift shop. Easily merits an hour or two of your visit to Buffalo. Pay Parking is on-site: you may be able or snag free parking a few mins walk away on site streets. Kudos as well for the environmentally sustainable design!

Enjoy local art including the eponymous Charles Burchfield. They have a beautiful gift shop and a small cafe that serves food. Every second Friday off the month they host an opening where the galleries are open to the public at no charge.

Kids loved it! Plenty to see. Takes about an hour to walk through.

Really beautiful museum showcasing local artists old and new including multimedia exhibits. Very open layout and clean. Cafe is a little pricey but the light fare is quite fresh and tasty. Only complaint is that the metered parking is more than a little confusing and only allows for up to 2 hours of use. A real gem to take visiting friends while Albright Knox is being renovated.

This museum holds the archives and art of many local artists as well as the archives and the art of local artist Charles E Burchfield . I was truly fascinated with each and every visit. I’ve also had the opportunity to attend Artist Talks hosted by Resource Art and felt surrounded by creativity and beauty. The shop on the first floor is full of affordable work by local artists including jewelery, textiles, pottery, greeting cards and so much more!

I was there for Stay Gold I met many friends nice venue. Thank you M&T Bank for your support of the Arts in our Beloved City of Buffalo. Valley Ambassador approved.

I have been a member of the Burchfield Penney for years. It is a great supporter of local artists as demonstrated by the shows and the items sold in the gift shop. The Burchfield offers many community programs and the second Friday evenings are attended by all ages. The shows are changed often and are excellent. It is a great asset for our city

Always a treat every time I visit. Great local and national talent always on display. Featured galleries and exhibits are always being added to keep the look ever changing. You definitely have to check this place out if you like the arts!

Unexpected delight, easily the best museum I visited in buffalo. Well curated, with interesting, differing highlights. Great gift shop, nice for thoughtful gifts

Great place for art, terrible place for music. Whenever a band is playing in the main gallery the acoustics always let them down.But its an art gallery, So Im not going to hold terrible music against them.

This well presented and rich gallery features a cafe, free lockers (you get your quarter back when you leave) and a wide selection of art. Free admission for Buff State students and close proximity to campus is a great benefit as well!

Wonderful local art receptions. Nice environment. Great experience everytime!

A phenomenal place that offers many experiences like no other! One not to miss is the annual John Coltrane Birthday Celebration in conjunction with the Pappy Martin Legacy Jazz Collective

This is where my cousins wedding reception was held. Not only is it a gorgeous place, but we all had a ball!

The Science Fair is held here every year and its a great experience for young future scientist.

Reasonable price $10 ,parking available. Nice gift shop.helpful staff.

I absolutely loved visiting the BPAC when I attended Buffalo State because of all the creative pieces of art that were on display. There is always a rich collection of contemporary and modern art being showcased which I am a huge fan of. A trip here any time of the day was extremely relaxing and so inspirational.Not enough students took advantage of the free admissions which is unfortunate. They frequently host events and invite key speakers, where you have the opportunity to learn a great deal and network with attendees.The BPAC was recently renovated and they installed projectors in front of the center that displays films on the center itself. Its a pleasure to watch it when the sun is down because you can see it clearly.

This museum is such a gem - something new and interesting every time we visit!

I love this art museum! It is small but spacious with a variety of works. The staff are very friendly. On the second Friday of the month, the museum is free to the public. I took my grandchildren yesterday. It was both educational and enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Great for seeing the work of WNY local artists. Some impressive exhibits that change constantly mixed with a staple of Burchfields art. Worth visiting often.

A beautiful tribute to thr artists of Western New York. What a treat.

Never been to an art gallery before. Interesting

Very nice contemporary art collection. Great views from the balcony.

The paintings in the exhibits are very interesting. Many from recent and local artists. I did not know there is so much talent in this area.

Ive been here twice, and both times have been very impressed by the exhibits. They have some interesting events here, a good gift shop, and if you like museum cafes it seemed pretty good.The current exhibits, Jonathan Rogers and Enough Killing! really stuck out, are definitely worth seeing.The staff are incredibly helpful, and the building is something to see no matter what theyre showing.

So glad there open again!

The Docent was extremely knowledgeable and the free tour was packed full of information and there was really good interaction with the group, Not just someone spitting out a bunch of facts. The Docents passion for All of the work was obvious. I look forward to our next visit.

Beautiful place. I went for an authors book release (Rosanne L Higgins) and will be back to see the rest of the museum.

Very interesting forms and displays of different kinds of artwork. It was really nice a learning experience

Second Friday are free, cant go wrong!

A fun getaway with decent art, and good food!

Beautiful building, very nice gift shop. But not a lot of space for the art. I go there mostly for the programming in the auditorium -- public conferences and the occasional film (Buffalo Film Festival shows some entries there)

Many years since last, was quite a wonderful visit

A hidden gem on Elmwood. Much larger than it seems from the outside with really nice featured artists. Free second Fridays are great.

First class art museum. Covers many artists beyond Chas Burchfield. Excellent art by Western NY artists. Displays internationally know artists as well.

Appreciably Buffalos underrated Art Gallery...because the more famous gallery across the street will always be the darling..but I feel Burchfeild Penney is more accessible in a community aspect..giving local Art a venue that has an almost organic feel...as its roots are from the community

This is my favorite art museum in upstate NY. The building itself is exquisitely designed. Their rotating exhibitions of Charles Burchfields art allows for an appreciation of the scope of his work (which is as if Van Gogh worked in watercolor). The other exhibits focus on western NY artists, which provides exposure and fosters respect for local talent. It can easily be enjoyed in 1.5 to 2 hours. A cultural gem!

Ive been twice and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Merton exhibit was stunning and well curated. Staff is friendly and, if you like museum gift shops, the one here is tastefully done.

The opening was very exciting! Had a good time especially checking out the quilt portraits!

The parking isnt sufficient. Be aware.

A nice museum. Local art, but some good stuff in there. Attractive building.

Very rude staff. would not recommend.

Beautiful gallery. Great historical presentation on arts and crafts movement in NYS.

Friendly docent and staff. Great Art to see!

What an amazing museum, always has great exhibitions and rotating art on display.

Lot of walking- much larger than appears from outside. Various types of art & much from local artists which is nice to see.

Great western ny art

The portrait show is great. I can not wait to see the new Burchfield show

Great experience staff very friendly events worth the trip

They designed a program for our cubscouts. The scouts had a great experience and the ladies instructing them were wonderfully helpful and informative!!

Great museum showcasing contemporain artists and historic art in sleep package. Definitely a jewel of the Queen City.

Some great curating of local artists here! They are an amazing institution we are so lucky to have!

I went for the first time with my brother last Christmas and had an enjoyable time. I love having a local museum catering to local and regional artists.

A world class art gallery across from another national treasure (the Albright Knox) this Gallery and Art Center produces major art shows, film and music performances with a permanent collection of the fantastic natural-world works of Charles Burchfield. Schedule a day to visit both galleries and be filled with inspiration and creative excitement.

A jewel of a place the staff is super friendly, glad we came

Great place to vist and get ur art on

Excellent art gallery and there are cool exhibits during the year.

Always something new to see & enjoy.

Clean the staff are very helpful

Loved the guided tour on a Sunday afternoon. The paperweight exhibit was awsome! Were glad they were able to bring it to this museum.The staff was knowledgeable and friendly!

Wonderful exhibit on the changing face of aging!

Great entertainment and art exhibites.

Amazing art work

Well designed expansive gallery. Im not personally a fan of Charles Birchfields work, however many contemporary and experimental exhibits come through here.

It is a true discovery for the art lover. Gallery has large collection of Burchfield, and if you are not familiar with this artist, you need to see his art -amazing watercolours. If you are in Buffalo, do not miss it!

Although much smaller than the Albright-Knox, the Burchfield Penney focuses primarily on local artists across WNY. Their collections are very modern and contemporary, but are accessible to all visitors. The architecture and design of the museum is as equally impressive, and is a great addition to the surrounding Buff State campus. The level of security does not infringe on the ability to enjoy the exhibits, and the admission is fairly priced. Visiting the BPAC is always a great way to spend an afternoon.

Heather Gring says sometimes you have to let the racists be racist so you can pay the bills

I loved the family Friday event.

A beautiful space

Beautiful treasure here in Buffalo

Wish the exhibitions were as good as the building.

Loved it

Very modern and open space. Terrific exhibits and wonderful exhibits opening parties held in the facility.

Absolutely wonderful gallery with great events! You can sign up for their emails so you wont miss out! Free 2nd Fridays!

Beautiful gallery just opposite the Knox-Albright Gallery in Buffalo. Excellent layout and regularly changing exhibitions.

Very beautiful place..a lot of interesting works.

Very enjoyable ...

Not too huge of a gallery. It contains many of Burchfields works, as well as a unique focus on art from Western New York. I found it very intrigued that the ceiling of the second floor has the constellation Orion in the lights.

I was here for a wedding so I probably didnt see it in its natural element, but it seemed very nice and modern. And obviously caters to requests.

I found a new artist to love. Amazing works on art and the gallery is quite stunning.

Definitely recommend!

It has local artist

Unpretentious. You can wander and take in the art at your own pace, think & consider.

Dont miss stopping by here while in Buffalo.

Very interesting. But some art is extremely confusing as to why theyd show it..

The Burchfield Penney Arts Center is the most innovative, diversified and ALIVE art museum in Western New York.

Great special events, as well as very well curated art exhibits.

Very nice building , nice collection of art , nice visit

A lot to see and friendly staff.

Nice collection and great display.

Love the art

What a gem in the city of Buffalo

Great place

Great art gallery.

Excellent collection from this renowned artist

Um..why would you take your daughter to an art gallery and expect hands on interaction. Color me puzzled and amazed.

Silly very good

Special event handled marvelously
