CityMade, Inc.
CityMade is a corporation that is all about Buffalo. What started out a few years ago as a prosperous, moderately sized purveyor of Buffalo-themed gift baskets has blossomed into a full-scale distribution center located in one of Buffalo's industrial parks.
The beautifully packaged Buffalo-themed baskets are still flying out the door. Not only are they available for purchase on their easy-to-use website, they are also distributed in all of Wegmans WNY stores. The yummy contents include our much loved Anchor Bar wing sauce, PJ's Loganberry drink, Weber's mustard, as well as many others. Among the many other things they offer are items like art, music, books, apparel, UB care packages and products featuring the Buffalo Bills logo.
Dramatically increasing the distribution of many of Buffalo's products, as well as providing employment to a number of Buffalo citizens, is not their only contribution to our city.
Gift boxes featuring the Best of Rochester, Syracuse, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Washington D.C. and the soon to follow New Jersey, are also designed and distributed by this company.
Other local businesses like Nano-Dynamics and Yardley London use their distribution center. They have also become the manufacturers and distributors of all of the gift baskets sold by Wegmans under the Wegmans name.
Perhaps instead of our ,Aeusilver bullet,Aeu projects (i.e. Bass Pro, Signature Bridge) many smaller, innovative, niche companies and projects are the real means to achieving the prosperity that Buffalo so deserves.
If you are interested in ordering holiday gifts from CityMade, it is best to get your order in as soon as possible to avoid shipping delays.

Rock and Roll Theatre
French satire from the 1600's feels like falling asleep in high school english class. But classic French satire with a rock and roll band? That sounds better. We can thank Andy Liegl for this bold modernity on December 26th when his production of Such Foolish Affected Ladies opens at the Alt Theatre. The original play calls for violinists but this role has been liberally opened up to local band The Nepenthe.

A Souvenir From Alleyway Theatre
It’s funny how history seems to repeat itself. Florence Foster Jenkins was in the elite member of society, but terribly eccentric and utterly convinced that she was a great coloratura soprano – despite the fact that she couldn’t carry a tune for even a few notes. She even managed to hold a sold out concert, even though she couldn’t sing! Sound familiar? Remember William Hung?
Jenkins’ story happened over 50 years ago. She would hold annual recitals in the Ritz Carlton h … - Dec 18th 2008, 6:51am

New Magazine To Focus On The Local Art Scene
What could be more perfect to spread the news about local artists at the Buffalo Indie Market than a literary magazine that features works from local artists?

Erica Eichelkraut, a freelance photographer, created NOMAD and is bringing it to the public.

This is wonderful news for Buffalo and infact it the concept needs to be expanded.
Imagine our local colleges partner with the Small Business Association to create and review business plans and as part of their success....they can get their great small business ideas marketed thru Citimade.
It could facilitate an outlet for our budding and struggling entrepreneurs and it could be a huge focal point of pride for are city and region.
Now the question is are their leaders out there that are willing to partner resources....to help the small business owner succeed?

But PJ's Loganberry while started by former Buffalonians is actually made out in Saratoga, NY. Aunt Rosie's is actually a much better flavor and more local...
It's like going to Buffalo Wild Wings, yeah you are supporting a chain started by former Buffalo guys but they now live and are based out in Minnesota not here.
