RISE COLLABORATIVE

Rise Collaborative is a news and entertainment platform. We talk to every day people from artists to small business owners, community leaders and people on the street. Buffalo can and will be better when everyone knows and understands each other. We have fun while doing it, and throw some parties too.

No Boundaries Magazine is a perfect bound magazine covering social and economic justice, community change makers, and arts, music, history and culture. We distribute to every neighborhood in Buffalo, every one of its suburbs for FREE.
The latest edition, #8, predicts what Buffalo will look like in 2051 with the help of area non profits, professors and researchers building this world out before our creative writers produced suspenseful narratives within it. Check it out on issuu.

LIFTED by Rise Collaborative is a podcast released weekly, taking a deeper look at the people behind positive change. From politicians who got their start during the Civil Rights Movement, to head brewers and blacksmiths, to refugee entrepreneurs. Listen now on Spotify (or wherever you get your podcasts).

Rise VIDEO combines general content about our communities with promotional content we develop specifically for our clients. This ain’t that shit on TV. The Rise Report premiered in 2021 and produced over 30 mini documentaries about Buffalo and Niagara Falls artists, community leaders, small business owners and hot topics around town. We took a big swing, and we will return soon. Watch the entire series on YouTube.
