These artists all share strong ties to Buffalo Arts Studio, contributing to a diverse and engaging exhibition. Tales from the Porch IV: Art Is a Language was executively directed and produced by Aitina Fareed-Cooke, filmed and edited by Alex Rojé Felix, with music engineered by Robert “CarolinahBlu” Herrod.
