Art Dialogue Gallery, Buffalo

Located just a stone’s throw from Buffalo’s historic Allentown neighborhood, Art Dialogue Gallery is more than an art gallery-it’s a cultural hub, a custom framing powerhouse, and a long-standing advocate for regional and international artists. Established in 1984 by Donald J. Siuta, a lifelong artist and art educator, the gallery has become one of Western New York’s most dynamic creative spaces.

The gallery hosts ten exhibitions a year, showcasing an eclectic mix of watercolor paintings, photography, drawings, sculpture, and antique prints. These thoughtfully curated shows highlight both emerging talent and established names from the local and global art scenes. Adding to its appeal, Art Dialogue Gallery presents a Thursday night Words and Music Concert Series, blending visual and performing arts in an intimate setting. The space also includes a workshop and regularly hosts community-focused events.

Beyond exhibitions, the gallery is renowned for offering the largest selection of custom framing in Western New York, with hundreds of molding options and services ranging from framing posters to preserving precious family heirlooms. Whether you're an artist, collector, or someone looking to enhance a personal keepsake, the framing studio caters to all needs with professional care and aesthetic sensibility.

A Buffalo State College graduate, he has exhibited widely and held leadership roles in key local art organizations and public art committees. Thanks to his vision, the Art Dialogue Gallery remains a vibrant space where art is celebrated, shared, and experienced.
