Every Friday The Foundry Home Goods contributes 5% of our total sales to a different community-nominated small-and-mighty cause. This Friday's Foundry Giving Friday recipient? Red Eye Theater.

Artist-run and artist-centered, Red Eye Theater is a vital artistic lab that supports the rigorous artistic inquiry of Minnesota artists from a broad spectrum of experiences and expression. For over three decades, Red Eye has supported over 1,000 artists and presented over 200 shows. The works are occasionally wild and experimental, elevated and unexpected, and always honest and deeply felt...the deep connection of performance and expression is richly human and, through that connection, our shared humanity can be more deeply understood, explored, and celebrated.

In short, Red Eye Theater Collaboration is awesome. Intentionally modest in size, Red Eye supports a new generation of artists creating boundary-breaking performance work, encouraging experimentation, foregrounding process, and advocating for systemic change for the contemporary performance community in the Twin Cities.

We are pleased and proud to support this good work this Foundry Giving Friday. If you don't need anything from us, consider contributing to Red Eye Theater directly. If you DO find yourself in need of anything from us, know that your purchase goes to support good change happening on the community level.

Thanks to Rachel for the nomination!
