On February 14th, The dA Center for the Arts will have its annual opening for The Red Show a.k.a. Simply Red. The Red Show is an open call exhibition that's focus is on any artwork that contains or represents the color red. The color red is one of the most representational, symbolic and vibrant colors in the spectrum. Its presence alone commands the attention of the eye. Its uses range from representing love, anger, passion, decadence and pain. This dynamic color will surely inspire artists to create work that astounds us all.

However, The Red Show does not celebrate only the color red, it is also an eagerly anticipated highlight event for The dA Center for Arts. Running annually for the last 21 years, the show has become a staple in the community, one which people prepare for all year. At The dA itself, The Red Show has become a grounding tradition, anchoring itself in the community as a reliable idea with unexpected results. The Red Show acts as a beacon of crimson for local artists, fresh new artist, and Pomona Arts Colony patrons. Everyone is always welcome at The Red Show.
