The Red Gate Gallery is a creative space designed to foster community and appreciation for the arts.
Red Gate exhibits artwork addressing contemporary social issues while providing viewers an opportunity to enjoy a religious space outside of a religious event. It is an initiative of the Mission and Outreach Committee at Wydown United Church, and is free and open to the public.
Red Gate co-founders Adrienne Outlaw, Sarah Moon, and Elena Piston opened the space in the fall of 2023 as a way to foster community through the arts with the tag “art, music and irl (in real-life) human connection.” One year and five exhibits later, they’ve seen the deep need for a safe space for creative expression. “People from all walks of life gather here for the shows. Progressive religious communities like ours can take such ideas of openness for granted. We want Red Gate to promote radical acceptance and critical creative thought among everyone,” says artist and church member Outlaw.
“Spirit of the Trees”
curated by Mel Watkin | Jan 16 – Apr 12, 2026
Artists from every culture and every era of history depict trees as a symbol of life, renewal, and knowledge. Trees also pose great danger during a storm. But, in the aftermath, their loss is heartbreaking.
“She Who Carries You Within Her”
curated by Sukanya Mani & Saaba Lutzeler | May 8 – June 30, 2026
She Who Carries You Within Her centers on women and the enduring power of storytelling. From ancient times to now, women have carried, protected, and passed on their stories—through gesture, song, image, thread, and word. This exhibition asks: how have women shepherded their stories across generations and geography? What new forms can these stories take today?
