20 March 2016, Solo Show by Julia Kao

vd-7-poster– Boundaries –
An expression by Julia Kao

A cheeky exploration of our daily interactions through installation and sculpture to illuminate the boundaries we often forget to draw, need to set, and are constantly at odds with. The exhibit hopes to empower viewers to take ownership of their right to filter what enters their lives, and reject what doesn’t sustain them. By doing so, we are better able to create a reality closer to our personal ideals.

Red Room’s 5th year anniversary

The anniversary of our 5th year of red room kicked off with Stage Time and Juice for the kids. We welcomed parents and young ones alike to perform skits, stories, and puppet shows. Some had rehearsed to the point of perfection, while others visibly overcame their stage fright in order to share stories with us. Further into the afternoon, the stage was filled with music while guests enjoyed refreshments provided by Red Room’s sponsors for food and drink.

Deeper into the evening, with the stage cleared of bands and music, we welcomed people of all ages to share whatever they pleased, in the spirit of Red Room’s Stage Time and Wine. There were singers, dancers, a juggler, and even our very own Taipei Improv troupe!

With time to mingle, share, and listen, a socially and creatively fulfilling Saturday was had by all. We hope you can join us for Stage Time and Wine on the 3rd Saturday of each month. We look forward to seeing you there!

Happy Birthday!

“Happy birthday” to the always wonderful, unrelentingly passionate Red Room. Throughout the years, RR has provided us with a platform for self expression and for sharing in the creative arts – be it performance, visual, musical, spoken, etc. But most importantly, it has provided a safe space full of acceptance, warmth, and encouragement for people that wish to share, grow, and connect.

For some of us, it really is like coming home when we attend the monthly Stage Time & Wine/Juice. We get to see our old friends as well as make new ones, and find inspiration through shared stories and experiences. This day was a remembrance of the triumphant five years we’ve shared together, and a celebration of the wonderful times the future of RR is sure to hold.

Here’s to you, Red Room. Happy, happy birthday.

Stage Time & Wine 60
One of the best ST&Ws I’ve attended in the past 2 years. Everything came together beautifully, and it really was the people that made it so wonderful. Thanks so much to our old friends (great to see your faces) and newly made friends; we really created something special that night. The performances were so fun and exciting, and the audience-performer interaction was on FIRE. Way too many people stayed for HOURS after ST&W ended, because everyone was so excited on their new friends and nobody wanted to leave. That, to me, is a testament to how beautiful what we create at Red Room is.
