The Red Museum is a DIY warehouse artist space and host of live music events in Midtown Sacramento. The space has been hosting shows on the semi-downlow for a couple of years, but will soon enter a somewhat more public phase of its life. The space gained a steady following since it got going and eventually caught the attention of the City of Sacramento. In the wake of the Ghost Ship fire in Oakland, which killed 36 people and prompted many cities to sweep through and shut down all such artist spaces, that could have meant the end of the space. The Red Museum had to relocate Sac LadyFest just a few days before the event, but the city worked with them to help bring the place up to code. I talked to Drew Walker, who also composes and performs as DoofyDoo, about the place and its grand re-opening this Saturday August 26. Everything you need to know about that event, which is called Red Ex Vol. 1, is on Red Museum's IndieGoGo page.
