About Red Gates Arts Society
Non-profit arts society dedicated to providing affordable studio space and exhibition/performance space for experimental art and music. “The Red Gate Arts Society was founded in 2012, after a series of closures of community arts spaces left a large void in Vancouver’s historically arts-friendly Downtown Eastside district, and a sense of urgency and crisis in the artists and musicians that had until then depended on cheap space in the fast-disappearing older buildings in the area. What had been an ad-hoc collection of individuals with a common cause in holding on to their existing spaces became a focused organization dedicated to establishing new ones, and in the process demonstrate a prototype of an independent, self-funded arts center.“ READ MORE
