Buffalo Arts Studio is excited to present an exhibition of new work by Sarah Jane Barry titled The Dragons in Our Lives. Sarah Jane Barry is a mixed media artist working in Buffalo, NY whose love of painting was born during the pandemic in 2020. She believes painting can function as a meditative process, providing a break from the monotony of day-to-day life and a chance to relinquish control.

The Dragons in Our Lives is on display August 23–October 11, 2024, with an opening reception on Friday, August 23, 5:00–8:00 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public. 


The Dragons in Our Lives was originally scheduled to be exhibited at BOX Gallery in the Hostel Buffalo-Niagara at 667 Main St. in Buffalo, NY. On April 10, 2024, the City of Buffalo condemned the Buffalo Urban Renewal Agency building, which adjoins the back of the Hostel, shut off the electricity, and then condemned the Hostel. 

“BOX gallery is quite literally a small box. The nature of the space is to push artists to experiment in ways they may not have previously considered. This show has been an experimental journey in playing with my strengths and working towards moving into uncharted territory for me: three-dimensional art,” states Exhibiting Artist, Sarah Jane Barry.

“As it currently stands, Sarah Jane Barry's show will mark the final installment of BOX, completing 10 years of experimental art exhibitions and performances. With the future of Hostel Buffalo-Niagara still in sway, our building sits idle and dark in the theater district. Lots of hard work is being done behind the scenes to revive the Hostel. Regardless of the outcome, we are extremely thankful to Buffalo Arts Studio for hosting this exhibition, to Sarah Jane for presenting our final show, and to all the artists and performers who have graced the space with their talents,” JP Pierre, the Managing Director of Hostel Buffalo-Niagara, states.
