"We want to meet the people, talk art with them, and keep them as friends and collectors. Come by and enjoy a diversity of original work ! Red Umbrellas (RU) was formed by a group of artists who wished to challenge the assumptions and practices within the art industry and at the same time create something worthy of the dignity of the artist, the public, and public spaces. An enrichment where the artists and the public go away advantaged for having come together. Today Red Umbrellas also approaches the community through their "Art Supports Community" program , Fundraisers where the group donates a portion of their proceeds to the Event Hosting Charity.
