What a night—celebrating SUPERPOWERS OF JOY with everyone!

With 70 artworks on view and 100+ people showing up strong—turns out joy really does have superpowers.

We invited young artists to participate in My Superpowers of Joy, a youth art exhibition that encourages children and teens to reflect on what joy means to them and how it can be expressed visually. Together, these young artists created a beautiful, welcoming space through work that connects and celebrates creativity, optimism, and the importance of making.

The gallery was packed with imagination, color, and new community connections! This event used creativity to include others and actively challenged hate!

Huge thankyous to all the families that participated and came out to our party!
We couldn’t of done it without support from our local partners , , and plus our all-star volunteers from the Jewish Community Center of Greater Buffalo and Temple Beth Zion .buffalo You all made this night shine.

Making art for joy—and then throwing a party for it?
Yeah… that’s a superpower we’re keeping.

My superpowers of joy is officially an annual exhibition and happening!

We spent the afternoon at the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library for the Family History Conference—tabling for our soon-to-launch Stuart and Caren Shapiro Jewish Genealogy Center of Buffalo, a new branch in the “family tree” of the Jewish Museum of Buffalo.

It was a pleasure connecting with community members interested in our upcoming Jewish genealogy training program and meeting fellow history enthusiasts from across Western New York. society

We also invited visitors to weigh in on one of our most exciting decisions—helping us shape the look of our future logo for the SCS Jewish Genealogy Center.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, shared their stories, and helped us build this next chapter—together.

Open to all—everyone is welcome.
