“In the grand scheme of things Rochester is a big little city. It is full of diversity, art, culture, and prosperous and historical businesses. At the same time, we have lush parks and access to the crystal clear water of the Finger Lakes. There are fabulous golf courses, museums, theatres, and the most divine restaurants for miles.

“We love Rochester not just because those things are here in the city, but because everyone has access to all these wonderful treasures. Being involved in the fashion shows, local art movements, festivals, and giving back to the community, we are lucky to be a part of this beautiful city.

“We love discovering new places/things that Rochester has to offer. Hitting up the newest budding restaurant or trying the latest cocktail creation from one of the city’s mixologists. New discoveries always get the creative juices flowing. Seeing successful, up-and-coming businesses blossom to life or frequenting the staple locations that make up the heart of the city helps broaden your horizons and keeps you grounded.

“From galas at the Memorial Art Gallery to the Jazz Fest, Fringe Festival to Park Avenue, Strong Museum, ARTISANWorks, Rochester City Ballet, and so many more, we love attending and supporting events at all our local favorite places! There are so many great things to do in this city, from music to dance, art to social gatherings, we love them all.”
