As I mentioned the other day, you’ll have to wait until the All WNY Awards Ceremony at the Evening Star Concert Hall on Jan. 19, 2019 to find out the winners of the awards. However, we are going to offer little tidbits between now and then. In fact, every three days, we’re going to let you in on who the top five were in each category.
