For the sixth year in a row, The Red Head Gallery is presenting INSOMNIA.   This always unique, always surprising group show, is not to be missed. Over 40 amazing artists from across Canada responded to our call, all  reflecting on the theme of insomnia.

 Performance Event: Nuit Blanche, September 24th: Gillian Collyer's 3D work titled 'Wrapped Chair'. The artist  will be coming into the gallery at midnight to obsessively wrap even more  brightly coloured red yarn onto a chair that is hidden and bulging  underneath previous layers of yarn.
