RedSky Gallery, East Blvd.

Charlotte, NC — RedSky Gallery, a 6,000 sq. ft. fine art and craft gallery located in
the heart of
Dilworth, opened its third location at the EpiCentre in Uptown Charlotte on January 22, 2009.
The newest RedSky location is approximately 1800 sq. ft. and is housed in a glass fronted space
facing the main courtyard of the EpiCentre complex. The design is more contemporary than the
main gallery but still maintains some key architectural elements that mimic the main gallery.
RedSky Gallery’s owner, Kellie Scott, admitted this is not the most opportune time to be opening
a new business but she felt it was worth the risk to be located in such a prime area. To be
literally in on the “ground floor” of such a great complex is an amazing opportunity.
The modern,
urban atmosphere at the EpiCentre is ideal for a fine art and craft gallery. “The EpiCentre
location opens us up to an entirely different market of customers” says Scott. “We’re
excited to
show Uptown Charlotte what RedSky has to offer.”
At the EpiCentre gallery, customers will find contemporary paintings, fine art glass, ceramics
and sculpture, as well as art-to-wear and fine studio jewelry. The Dilworth gallery will continue to
serve as the main gallery. Both locations will provide rotating artists’ exhibitions as well
as an
ongoing selection of art and fine craft. To learn more about the EpiCentre, click here.
In November 2008, RedSky opened a second location in South Charlotte at Blakeney Town
Center. The Blakeney Town Center location is approximately 1000 sq. ft. South Charlotte is one
of the fastest growing housing markets in the area. Consequently, Scott believes that the
Blakeney location will put RedSky in just the right place to “be there for customers to transform
their new houses into home. To learn more about Blakeney, click here.
RedSky Gallery was founded six years ago to showcase fine arts and crafts. In addition to the
gallery’s collection of contemporary paintings, including pastels, oils, watercolors, and mixed
media, RedSky offers exceptional works in glass, metal, ceramics, and wood. RedSky also has
a wide selection of home accessories, jewelry, and art-to-wear. The gallery currently represents
over 500 national and regional artists. Gallery visitors to all three locations will find a pleasing
array of high quality collections that encompass a variety of styles and price points. The gallery’s
owner, Kellie Scott, is committed to representing the best in local and national contemporary art.
RedSky Gallery also offers a variety of Corporate Art Services. RedSky’s expert staff can
assist
companies in choosing or commissioning the perfect piece of art for any office space. Through
the Corporate Gift and Award Program the staff can help select a beautiful piece of art to
recognize outstanding employees and clients. The gallery space may also be rented as a
unique venue for your next special event. Additionally, the gallery offers Bridal Registry for
art
loving couples. Once couples register for items, they may be viewed online for guests to select
and then call or come in to the gallery to purchase. For more information, please visit

Charlotte, North Carolina - RedSky Gallery is proud to present an exhibition of wall sculptures by
Anne
Cunningham and jewelry by Deb Karash. The exhibition opens with a reception on Friday evening February
5th 6:00-8:30 pm. at RedSky Gallery, 1244 East Blvd, in Dilworth. The show runs through
March 9th.
Since 1990, Anne Cunningham has been on an exciting exploration using metals such as copper, brass,
and aluminum to create large and small free-form shapes. “Every day is an experiment” -discovering
new
ways to add texture and shape the metals, layering with papers, weaving cut strips, applying inks, dyes,
chemicals and paints. With no constricting boundaries, her work continues to change and evolve.
Cunningham’s work is represented in 12 galleries around the Southeast and in Private and Corporate
Collections such as S.A.S. Institute, Duke Medical Center, Bank of Birmingham, Carolina Power &
Light,
Wake Medical Centers and United Health Care, Salt Lake City. Recently, Cunningham’s work
was voted
“Best of North Carolina Artists, First Place in Mixed Media”.
Jewelry artist Deb Karash draws inspiration from natural textures, fiber, stone and mixed media paintings
and sculpture. Her jewelry reflects the mystery and richness of individual lives and personalities.
Surface,
color and texture are as important as the form itself.
RedSky Gallery features original works on paper and canvas, sculpture, ceramic, glass, studio furniture,
art-
to-wear, jewelry, and more. Over 500 regional and national artists are represented at three gallery
locations
in Dilworth, Blakeney Town Centre in South Charlotte and the EpiCentre in Uptown. For more information
