Redstone Art Foundation

Redstone Art Foundation

The Redstone Art Foundation plays an integral part in promoting and encouraging the arts in the Crystal River Valley.

The Redstone Art Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit organization. Your donation is tax-deductible.

The annual Redstone Art Foundation's Labor Day Weekend Art Show, creates a forum for local artists and nurtures a spirit of pride in our community. This will be the 13th year we have sponsored the show. Each year draws more guests to view the professional artwork on display.

Every year the Foundation hosts workshops in various mediums taught by professional artists that offers students a stimulating learning experience for a remarkably reasonable fee. To learn more about this years workshops, click on the individual artists link.

The Redstone Art Foundation awards a scholarship each year to a graduating senior from Roaring Fork High School that is pursuing a career in the arts. With your help we will have the funds to continue this program in future years.

What is in our future?

We all have important values and ideas, things we care about and want to share. Sometimes we feel our ideas can even change the world, and we want to let you know how you can join in and make all our lives better through the art world. The board of directors for the Redstone Art Foundation have a dream of one day securing a building in Redstone, Colorado, for local artists to work, demonstrate and display their work. This is a lofty goal, perhaps a "pie in the sky" dream, but if you share our dream or would like to hear more of our plans, contact us and join the Redstone Art Foundation as a member.

Redstone Colorado is truly an artists' paradise.
