The Umbrella Sky Project has transformed Brick Market Place into a world of color and creativity.
Umbrella Sky Newport, produced by ArtScape, unveiled its captivating display of over 500 colorful umbrellas magically suspended in the sky on June 17.
Organizers say that this breathtaking installation promises to create a magical haven for the community and visitors alike, casting sun-kissed shadows through a canopy of floating umbrellas onto the pathway of the tree-lined street flanked by eclectic shops.
The location on Goddard Row has been transformed into an enchanting realm where art comes to life, encouraging engagement and awe-inspiring experiences not to mention opportunities for great selfies. As part of the vibrant atmosphere, live music performances by local artists will grace the scene every Saturday and Sunday, infusing the air with melody and rhythm. Additionally, future art and craft shows will be announced, adding to the allure and variety of this captivating art project.
