An Evening with Andrew Galarneau
September 18th | 6-8 pm | Art’s Cafe (main stage) | Free
Andrew Galarneau talks about the state of journalism, his thirty-five-year career in print and his transition to online community journalism. Q&A to follow the presentation.
On Dec. 1, 2023, Andrew Galarneau quit The Buffalo News, his employer of 25 years, most recently as its food editor and restaurant critic. After 35 years as a print journalist – crime and courts, investigative reporting, features, and food – he went digital, determined to help build the new community journalism models American towns need. He started fourbites.net out to see if readers would pay for a steady stream of reliable, actionable eating intelligence centered around Buffalo. He also started thebuffalohive.com, a non-profit site dedicated to growing into the community calendar Buffalo deserves. Both enterprises are based on lessons his undergraduates taught him about how today’s digital attention sphere really works.
