COLLABORATION of Local Artists to Open Holiday Store in
One HSBC Center Lobby

 

Urban ARTisans, a unique collaboration of local artists, will be opening a location in the lobby of One HSBC Center for the 2010 holiday season. The store, featuring locally crafted jewelry, scarves, art and other gifts will be open from 9am - 3pm, Monday through Friday from November 29th until December 23rd.

 

The Urban ARTisans have been together for over two years and feature the work of Paul Morgan of Avalon Scarves, Anne Bliss of Bliss Designs, Chary Robbins of Illusions 3rd Eye Productions and Nicole Ambarchian of Gem & I Custom Jewelry. The wide variety of products are all handcrafted in the Buffalo area, and will make perfect one-of-a-kind gifts for the Christmas season.

 

Over the past several years Urban ARTisans has traveled throughout downtown locations to showcase their unique wares. They have done day-long stints in many of Buffalo's most prestigious office locations including One HSBC Center, Waterfront Village Center, the Rath Building, the Larkin at Exchange Building and the Key Center. The move to a single consistent location was conceived to be convenient for customers to find the Urban ARTisans during the busiest shopping season of the year.

 

“Urban ARTisans brings craftsman quality jewelry, art, and giftware to your business location for the ultimate in shopping convenience, luxury and personal attention.”

Our events are well received and in growing demand from building management and staff members alike due to the boutique atmosphere we create with our product display and committed customer service.

What better way to show your appreciation to your hard working employees than to offer them a time saving and unique shopping experience. Meanwhile, our customers have the satisfaction of meeting local Buffalo artists with over 50 years of combined business experience.

We are actively seeking new venues.  We will require use of a space for a whole day (usually 8AM-5PM) to display our work to the most customers and post or circulate fliers and/or email ads to the building tenants as a way to spotlight our upcoming show in your building. Building management should provide tables for our use in the designated area. This will allow you to control table placement as it relates to traffic flow. We provide all draping for tables and contain our display to these tables unless otherwise stated. At the end of the show we clean up our area of all materials, signage and debris leaving tables as we found them.


What we do...

An Idea Whose Time Has Come"

Urban Artisans is a group of local Buffalo Artists selling gifts at corporate locations around WNY. It's a unique shopping experience that offers a mental respite for busy employees short on time. Each artist creates unique original items in several different media with an emphasis on quality merchandise and customer service that comes with buying a handmade item.
 
A Business First article from Nov. 2007 points out that "....
if they bring the stores and services to the office, they're giving employees the benefit of a quick trip, but without the stress of parking and fighting the crowds." Urban Artisans is filling that niche here in Buffalo and the suburbs with great boutique items.   

Treat your employees to a unique shopping experience with a mixed media art show featuring handcrafted arts found in exclusive boutiques across WNY. Our group of working Buffalo artists participates in Art Festivals and fund raising events throughout the year and would enjoy an opportunity to offer our specialties to your professional staff.

If you can provide a central location in your building, we will create an enjoyable atmosphere with insured vendors who make customer service a priority.

We look forward to planning an Art show with your company soon.
