Sasmita Batik Indonesia

Former Indonesia Stock Exchange trader Novi Paluch has guided Sasmita Batik Indonesia from relatively humble beginnings as a stall at the West Side Bazaar, to a larger stall in the historic Market Arcade building, and now to her very own shop in the City Center building. As can be inferred from the title, the stock in trade of this cute, brightly decorated little shop is an exciting and colorful array of fashions, jewelry and loose batik cloth that ably reflect the beauty and culture of Southeast Asia. As well, Sasmita stocks a modest range of accessories, home decor, kitchenware, and unique gifts of the same ilk.

Club Marcella
To hear owner Joe Guagliardo tell it, Marcella's has long ceased to be a gay bar in the strict sense, as opposed to a club that simply welcomes people of all stripes, LGBT or no. And while it's true that nowadays the place attracts at least as many twentysomething women looking for a fun, harassment-free night out as it does gay men, when you get right down to it not all that much has changed. The music still pumps, the weekly drag shows are still locally legendary, and the all-female "Roxy's Thursdays" remain the nucleus of the Buffalo burlesque scene. The bouncers tend to be sticklers, though, so mind your P's and Q's.

CEPA Gallery
Located in the historic and architecturally stunning Market Arcade in the Theater District and funded by CEPA members as well as charitable foundations, the CEPA Gallery's mission, according to its website, is "to present contemporary photo-related art, to support working artists, and to promote a greater understanding of photography and its associated aesthetic and cultural issues", with a particular focus on the work of local photographers as well as those who come from groups that have been traditionally underrepresented in the field. To that end, exhibitions of work by CEPA members and others are frequently held in the gallery space.
