East Aurora

Founded in 1804, this charming country village south of Buffalo is the perfect blend of old and new. East Aurora features many unique shops, galleries and boutiques, interspersed amongst restaurants and classic diners. Our nation’s 13th President, Millard Fillmore built his house here, which now functions as a history museum and is listed as a National Historic Landmark. The buildings along South Grove Street, founded in 1895, make up the Roycroft Campus, a multi-monument to the man who conceived them - writer/philosopher Elbert Hubbard and the Roycrofters. Roycroft Renaissance Artisans, along with other local artists, sell their products here, as well as other shops and galleries nearby.

Younger visitors will be delighted when they visit Explore and More...a children’s museum. Through experiment, discovery and play, they learn about the world around them. It’s no wonder that East Aurora is the home of well-known Fisher-Price!

Centrally located on Prospect Avenue, Hamlin Park hosts many Village celebrations and concerts and is the home of the Aurora Players, a communiity theatre company.
