Meet Mickey Harmon, co-founder of The Good Stuff, a gallery and gift shop in the heart of Allentown that has become a true hub for Buffalo’s creative community. Mickey takes us through the story of how he and a group of local artists came together seven years ago to create this unique space, giving local talent a place to shine and providing the community with a fresh, rotating gallery of locally-made art, prints, and gifts.

Mickey doesn’t just curate art—he’s deeply involved in the Allentown neighborhood, organizing events like the First Friday Gallery Walk, street festivals, and local flea markets that bring people together and highlight the area’s unique character. In our conversation, Mickey shares his knowledge of Allentown’s history and the local stories that inspire his work and fuel his passion for building connections within Buffalo’s art scene.
