“We The People: The World in Our Commonwealth”

“We The People: The World in Our Commonwealth”

  • Virginia Museum of History & Culture (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

About the Exhibition
Stories of opportunity, community and resilience are brought to life at the Virginia Museum of History & Culture (VMHC) in “We The People: The World in Our Commonwealth,” an exhibition that brings together more than 100 voices speaking to distinct perspectives on the immigrant experience of Virginians. A signature component of the Museum’s multi-year slate of exhibitions, programs and activations commemorating the 250th anniversary of America, “We The People” presents the deeply personal narratives of individuals born in 68 countries who sought freedom, opportunity and refuge by immigrating to the United States.

One of the leading catalysts for semiquincentennial commemorations in Virginia and beyond, VMHC has played a key role in shaping the Commonwealth’s 250th anniversary efforts. The Museum was among the first institutions to convene statewide history leaders and encouraged Virginia’s General Assembly to found the Virginia American Revolution 250 Commission (VA250). In July 2023, VMHC announced a comprehensive program for the anniversary, including two marquee exhibitions, “We The People: The World in Our Commonwealth” and “Give Me Liberty: Virginia & The Forging of a Nation,” which opened in March 2025 as the first major exhibition in the nation to mark the milestone anniversary.

Accompanying programs
March 28: Commonwealth Crossroads: A Celebration of Virginia's Immigrant Traditions

  • Celebrating the richness of artistic traditions brought to Virginia by recent immigrants and refugees, this showcase event includes music, dance, food, visual arts and ceremonies performed by master artists from around the world now living in the Commonwealth. The traditions featured were born and nurtured over centuries in places like Mongolia, Ethiopia, Vietnam, Bolivia, Guatemala and Cambodia; and that are now thriving here.

  • Artists and groups include Señora Julia Garcia (Quechua welcoming ceremony), the Nguyen Family Band (music from Vietnam), Gankhuyag (GanNa) Natsag (Tsam Buddhist masks), Ubaldo Sanchez (Alfombra), Tradiciones Bolivianos (Bolivian dancing), Sochietah Ung (Cambodian dance and costumes) and Lemlem Gebray and her twin daughters Datta and Akeza Seyoum (Ethiopian Coffee Ceremony).

·       April 12: Latinx Fashion Show

  • Latinx Fashion Show (LFS) VCU hosts their annual fashion show celebrating Latinx designers and the power of visibility, resilience and community. This year's theme, orchids, represents reblooming after damage as well as strength and perseverance in unstable conditions. An artist discussion, moderated by local Virginia designer, Jennifer Ortiz,
    follows the show.

Imagining Best Products

Imagining Best Products

  • The Branch Museum of Design (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Some of the most unexpected design ideas started right here in Richmond.

If you grew up here, you might remember Best Products. Our new exhibition, Imagining Best Products, revisits the local company that became an unlikely platform for architectural innovation.

By inviting architects to rethink the traditional big box store, Best turned retail into a creative experiment. The result was a series of bold, unconventional storefronts that challenged expectations and expanded what commercial architecture could look like. Through drawings, models, and photographs, the Best story comes to life.

Join us for the opening reception this Thursday, May 7. Members get complimentary early access from 5–6 PM, followed by the public reception from 6–8 PM. $10 admission includes wine and beer.

We’ll also have a limited run of Best-themed t-shirts, totes & hats by Odd Bird — a first look at what’s to come in The Branch’s new gift shop, launching this summer. We’ll also have a pop-up with our friends at Big Day Polaroids.

India's Great Mughals: Art, Power, and Opulenc
May

to Aug 23

India's Great Mughals: Art, Power, and Opulenc

Immerse yourself in the golden age of the Mughal Empire. India's Great Mughals: Art, Power, and Opulence celebrates the glorious artistic achievements and grandeur of one of history's great empires.  

India's Great Mughals includes 200 sumptuous objects—intricate paintings and manuscripts, lavish textiles, architectural elements, metalwork, furniture, arms and armor, dazzling precious stones, and more. Opulent works of art—many made in the imperial workshops—convey the power and tastes of the three most celebrated Mughal emperors: Akbar (r. 1556–1605), Jahangir (r. 1605–27), and Shah Jahan (r. 1628–58). From the tiniest jeweled objects to the monumental wonder of the Taj Mahal, this highly sophisticated and globally connected empire produced treasures of unparalleled splendor and magnificence.  

The extraordinary creative output of the imperial ateliers conveyed the Mughals’ great wealth and power. In addition to glorifying the emperors, these diverse artistic productions also signaled worldliness. Descendants of a Central Asian prince, these cosmopolitan emperors presided over a multicultural court that fused Indian and Iranian cultures and regarded the empire's array of languages and religions with great interest. Most notably, they encouraged artistic exchange with Europe, China, Africa, and the Americas, and elevated the importance of cultural and artistic pursuits to new heights. 

India's Great Mughals: Art, Power, and Opulence is organized by the Victoria and Albert Museum. The coordinating curator for VMFA is Dr. John Henry Rice, E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Curator of South Asian and Islamic Art.

Profs & Pints Richmond: Life Hacks for Distracted Brains

Profs & Pints Richmond: Life Hacks for Distracted Brains

Profs and Pints Richmond presents: “Life Hacks for Distracted Brains,” a look at how we all could benefit from research-based strategies for managing Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, with Laura E. Knouse, professor of psychology at the University of Richmond, licensed clinical psychologist, and author of Living Well with Adult ADHD: Practical Strategies for Improving Your Daily Life.

Technology has altered our environments in ways that challenge our capacity to stay focused and complete tasks. Netflix beckons us away from doing the dishes. We doom scroll instead of undertaking planned projects. In bumping up against deadlines for completing important tasks we realize that we’ve been doing just about anything else.

Fortunately, the science of psychology offers insights into what we can do to take back our attention and bridge the gap between our intentions and our actions.

Learn new strategies for staying focused with Dr. Laura Knouse, a clinical psychologist who studies ADHD in adults and is an expert in using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to treat it.

In a talk geared toward a general audience but sure to also benefit those with ADHD diagnoses, she’ll discuss evidence-based approaches to helping people gain new self-regulation strategies and manage thoughts and feelings that reduce motivation.

To help you become better at starting and completing meaningful tasks, she’ll teach you how to recognize and change emotional states that reduce motivation, and also how to notice and respond to sneaky thoughts that can derail task-completion efforts.

You’ll learn hacks for staying focused and the basic psychological principles that explain why they work. These include the principle of negative reinforcement and also the Premack Principle, which holds that we’ll perform a less-preferred activity for the sake of being able to perform a more-preferred one.

Audience members will have the opportunity to develop personal action plans for using these hacks to progress toward one of their important (but avoided) goals. To offer more in-depth guidance after the talk, Professor Knouse will have copies of Living Well with Adult ADHD available for sale. (Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. The talk starts 30 minutes later.)

Walk & Roll Challenge Meetup for EDS/HSD Awareness Month

  • 3401 Courthouse Road Richmond, VA, 23236 United States (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

May is Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) Awareness Month. These are connective tissue conditions that affect how the body is supported and stabilized across multiple systems and are often underrecognized or diagnosed late.

This walk is part of the EDS Walk and Roll Challenge and is a way to bring awareness to conditions that are not always visible, while coming together as a community.

Join us at Rockwood Park on May 31 at 1:00 PM. We will be walking the White Rectangle Loop Trail, a 1.3 mile paved loop through the forest. It is an accessible route and all paces are welcome.

I encourage you to donate $13 in support of EDS and HSD awareness as we walk 1.3 miles together.

I will also be participating in the Walk and Roll Challenge throughout May and donating $1 for every mile I walk or ride. Fundraising page: https://walkandroll2026.funraise.org/.../alexandras-eds...

If you would like to support this effort or follow along, you are welcome to visit my fundraising page or join the Virginia is for Zebras team.
Team page: https://walkandroll2026.funraise.org/.../virginia-is-for...

I will also be sharing education and awareness on EDS and HSD throughout May on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexandralcapps/

Thank you for being part of this.
Small, intentional steps can create meaningful change.

How It Works

  1. Register for the virtual 5K with a $20 donation.

The Field Guide for the Formerly Villainous Launch with Autumn K England

The Field Guide for the Formerly Villainous Launch with Autumn K England

Autumn K England (aka MK England, Remi K England, etc) is a Fountain Favorite, and we can't wait to welcome them back for their newest cozy read! They'll be in conversation with Sara Raasch at the store.


About the Book:

When Oaklin Nettlewood accidentally joined an evil world-ending cult, mind control magic forced them to do unspeakable things. Years later, the realm's heroes have finally saved the day, defeated the villain, and shattered the last remnants of the spell...leaving destruction in their wake. And so, with a spell-damaged memory and whole bushel of trauma, Oaklin escapes to a small farm on the edge of Mossley's Rest and swears an oath: After all the things they were forced to do with their magic, they will never use it again. Ever.

The no-nonsense ghost granny who lives in Oaklin's house has other ideas. As she coaxes Oaklin out of their shell and back into the world, they find companionship (a grumpy horse and a very good dog), friendship (a local bard and magical baker who should just kiss already), and tentative romance (a paladin-librarian who makes Oaklin's heart come alive for the first time in ages.) Magic even seems possible again—though strictly for foraging magical mushrooms and protecting the farm from bugs.

Healing comes in gentle waves, and Oaklin doesn't have to do it alone. So what does it mean when an inquisitor comes to town to hunt former cultists just as Oaklin begins to think that maybe, just maybe, they deserve a happy ending after all?


About the Author:

M. K. England grew up on the Space Coast of Florida watching shuttle launches from the backyard. These days, they live on a micro-farm in rural Virginia packed with video and board games, plants, D&D books, and their kindergartener’s giant personality. They’re probably covered in dirt right now. MK is the author of thirteen novels for kids, teens, and adults, including the forthcoming Field Guide for the Formerly Villainous. You can find them at open_in_newmkengland.com.

Summer Music Series - Ayreheart performs “Ayres of Albion”
Jun
4
7:00 PM19:00

Summer Music Series - Ayreheart performs “Ayres of Albion”


Ayreheart was founded by Grammy-nominated lutenist/composer Ronn McFarlane.

Performing with lute, vocals, colascione (a type of bass lute), violin, guitar, and percussion, Ayreheart offers a program of Renaissance music and traditional folk music from the British Isles.

Music of John Dowland and William Byrd are featured alongside anonymous ballad tunes and folk songs from Renaissance England, Scotland, and Wales.

This program, “Ayres of Albion,” explores the parallels between high art music and traditional folk music of the time, and includes original music steeped in traditions of the past.

$20.00 per adult
$15.00 per student (ages 7-18)
FREE for children 6 and under

20% discount for Agecroft members applies to both adult and student tickets.

In the event of inclement weather, the concert may be moved inside.

The Musicians of Ayreheart:
Heather Aubrey Lloyd ~ vocals and guitar
Ronn McFarlane ~ lute
Will Morris ~ colascione, violin, & bass
Mattias Rucht ~ percussion

Heather Aubrey Lloyd has travelled for two decades, playing anywhere that might make a good story: bait shops, biker weeks … even clothing-optional resorts. A recovering reporter whose love of the journey evolved into equally adventurous songwriting. Pat Wictor hails her “sing-me-the-phone-book” voice. “Janis Joplin meets Joni Mitchell,” says the Montgomery Caller. Comfortable in any genre, Lloyd blends folky finger-picked guitar with lyrical rhythms/hand percussion influenced by Baltimore's diverse music scene. Best known as co-front of ilyAIMY, Lloyd's solo efforts are gaining recognition: Falcon Ridge Folk Fest Most Wanted, National Women’s Music Fest Emerging Artist, No Depression-FreshGrass Finalist, and Top 4 Telluride Troubadour. She is also the 2019 Grand Prize Winner of the prestigious Bernard Ebb Songwriting Award. 2025 finds her back on her beloved road and releasing her second studio album, Panic Room With A View.

GRAMMY-nominated lutenist Ronn McFarlane strives to bring the lute - the most popular instrument of the Renaissance - into today’s musical mainstream and make it accessible to a wider audience. He has released over 40 recordings on the Dorian/Sono Luminus label, including solo albums, lute duets, flute & lute duets, lute songs, viola da gamba & lute, the complete lute music of Vivaldi, a collection of Elizabethan lute music and poetry, and recordings with the Baltimore Consort. Ronn has composed new music for the lute, building on the tradition of the lutenist/composers of past centuries. These original compositions are the focus of his solo CD, Indigo Road, which received a GRAMMY Award Nomination. In 2010 Ronn founded Ayreheart, an ensemble brought together to perform new compositions as well as early music.  Ayreheart’s first CD release, One Morning, consists of all-original music by Ronn McFarlane. Ayreheart’s release, Barley Moon, blends folk music and art music from Renaissance and Medieval England, Scotland and Wales. Ronn’s most recent solo album, The Celtic Lute, features his arrangements of traditional Scottish and Irish music from the 17th and 18th centuries.

A fascination with early music came late in life for Will Morris, having studied music composition and arranging with an emphasis in jazz, he never imagined he’d play the colascione (bass cousin of the lute family) and enjoy performing Renaissance repertoire. When Ayreheart first set out to perform original music, Will joined to play electric bass. And with exposure to early music through Ronn McFarlane, it was a natural evolution to the colascione. Will Morris has deep experience with classical ensembles, jazz combos, rock and funk bands, which shaped his musical sensibilities in unconventional ways, but the common underlying principle is that the presentation of music should enable the listener awareness of the ensemble as a whole, while still being able to appreciate each individual voice and instrument.

Mattias Rucht has been immersed in music his entire life. His father was a symphony conductor and his mother was a pianist. His first playground was in the midst of the orchestra and behind the stage. He started playing the drum-set at the age of twelve and began playing in southern rock bands at the age of fifteen. By college, he had advanced to jazz fusion. Mattias has been involved in multimedia development for many years. He has composed music for animation, games, film & video and has had a computer based studio since 1984. At one point, all the instruments that he used were MIDI and electronic. Around 2002, Mattias started listening to some of the masters of world percussion and what they were doing with acoustic instruments. A simple tambourine or djembe could be more expressive than a rack of electronic instruments. This sparked his interest in world percussion and getting back to basics. Since then, he has discovered the joy of ethnic percussion and world music, bringing a wide range of influences to his playing style. Mattias Rucht has been active in the Washington DC music scene for over 25 years as a drummer/percussionist, playing in various rock, jazz, folk and world ensembles. He has also performed in theatrical productions and accompanied dancers and storytellers.

Elsewhere Shakespeare presents “Much Ado About Nothing”

Elsewhere Shakespeare presents “Much Ado About Nothing”

About the play

William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing tells the story of two proud, willful "happily single" people who get tricked by their friends into admitting their love for each other. Amidst a backdrop of petty family drama and deceit, a group of people find love, thanks to the help of a pair of bumbling constables. Estimated run time: 90 minutes

About the performance

Weather permitting, this intimate performance will be staged outdoors in the sunken garden of Agecroft Hall. Audience members are encouraged to bring along seat cushions, blankets, and/or lawn chairs on which to sit during the 90-minute production. In the event of inclement weather, the performance will be moved inside and will take place in the Williams Room of Agecroft Hall.

About the company

Elsewhere Shakespeare is a small collective of actor-managers that began in 2019 in an attempt to apply the DIY ethos of the punk scene to producing Shakespeare. They believe that most things that make Shakespeare plays cheaper, faster, and easier to produce also make them more enjoyable both for actors and audiences.

They will only rehearse for about 10 hours in the day leading up to the performance. And Elsewhere shows do not utilize a director or stage manager: their process is entirely ensemble-led. Actors will make their own performance choices, pick their own costumes, and collectively decide how to tell the story.

And with at least a third of the cast changing between the two performances of each play, the whole story will take on new directions and new meanings as different cast members bring their own interpretation to the text.

Elsewhere usually stages their 90-min shows in unconventional spaces like bars, art galleries, basements, and occasionally folks' living rooms. But they are thrilled to bring their ragtag work to a classy joint for once.

$25.00 per person
20% discount for Agecroft members

  • Google Calendar ICS

Take a break from the workday and enjoy live music and frozen treats in Downtown Richmond with Venture Richmond’s new lunchtime pop-up series, Frozen Treats, Live Beats.

This free pop-up series brings eight live music performances to different locations throughout Downtown Richmond and Manchester, making it easy to step away from the desk, meet up with coworkers, and enjoy a little live music during the lunch hour.

The series takes place on select Thursdays from 12:00–1:00 PM.

The first 100 attendees at each event will receive a free frozen treat. Most locations will feature Richmond favorite Gelati Celesti, serving a complimentary scoop of their handcrafted ice cream. The May 7 pop-up will feature a free sweet treat from Daisy's.

After the first 100 treats are claimed, additional frozen treats will be available for purchase.

June 11: Richmond’s Kenneka Cook musically bridges the gap between beat-driven sonics and melodic jazz.

Cook's early training took place in her church choir and school chorus. Her tastes eventually shifted towards heavyweights like Billie Holiday, Erykah Badu, and The Cardigans, informing her confidently playful, harmony-heavy, atmospheric style. Initially she was making acapella songs with a microphone and laptop during the end of her college career out of necessity, describing her voice as "the only instrument I truly had access to" at the time. She discovered the process of live looping through Reggie Watts, who sometimes uses looping techniques in the songs found in his comedy acts. She is currently working on second project, a follow-up to her 2018 debut LP “Moonchild”.

Join us at Allianz Amphitheater at Riverfront for an evening of live art, entertainment, lawn games, community organizations, local vendors, giveaways, and food & drinks in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

OUTLOUD RVA is not a concert, but rather a laid-back social gathering designed to bring people together to connect with neighbors, local businesses, artists, and advocacy groups from across the city while celebrating Pride Month together in the heart of Richmond.

Come as you are, stay as long as you’d like, and enjoy the space with friends, neighbors, and community partners from across Richmond.

All are welcome. We can’t wait to see you on the lawn!

Elsewhere Shakespeare presents “Henry V”
Jun

7:00 PM19:00

Elsewhere Shakespeare presents “Henry V”

About the play

Henry V tells the story of King Henry's conquest of France. Full of rousing motivational speeches about the brotherhood of soldiers, it shines a light on the nature of leadership and the costs of war. Estimated run time: 90 minutes

About the performance

Weather permitting, this intimate performance will be staged outdoors in the sunken garden of Agecroft Hall. Audience members are encouraged to bring along seat cushions, blankets, and/or lawn chairs on which to sit during the 90-minute production. In the event of inclement weather, the performance will be moved inside and will take place in the Williams Room of Agecroft Hall.

About the company

Elsewhere Shakespeare is a small collective of actor-managers that began in 2019 in an attempt to apply the DIY ethos of the punk scene to producing Shakespeare. They believe that most things that make Shakespeare plays cheaper, faster, and easier to produce also make them more enjoyable both for actors and audiences.

They will only rehearse for about 10 hours in the day leading up to the performance. And Elsewhere shows do not utilize a director or stage manager: their process is entirely ensemble-led. Actors will make their own performance choices, pick their own costumes, and collectively decide how to tell the story.

And with at least a third of the cast changing between the two performances of each play, the whole story will take on new directions and new meanings as different cast members bring their own interpretation to the text.

Elsewhere usually stages their 90-min shows in unconventional spaces like bars, art galleries, basements, and occasionally folks' living rooms. But they are thrilled to bring their ragtag work to a classy joint for once.

$25.00 per person
20% discount for Agecroft members

Elsewhere Shakespeare presents “Much Ado About Nothing”
Jun

Elsewhere Shakespeare presents “Much Ado About Nothing”

About the play

William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing tells the story of two proud, willful "happily single" people who get tricked by their friends into admitting their love for each other. Amidst a backdrop of petty family drama and deceit, a group of people find love, thanks to the help of a pair of bumbling constables. Estimated run time: 90 minutes

About the performance

Weather permitting, this intimate performance will be staged outdoors in the sunken garden of Agecroft Hall. Audience members are encouraged to bring along seat cushions, blankets, and/or lawn chairs on which to sit during the 90-minute production. In the event of inclement weather, the performance will be moved inside and will take place in the Williams Room of Agecroft Hall.

About the company

Elsewhere Shakespeare is a small collective of actor-managers that began in 2019 in an attempt to apply the DIY ethos of the punk scene to producing Shakespeare. They believe that most things that make Shakespeare plays cheaper, faster, and easier to produce also make them more enjoyable both for actors and audiences.

They will only rehearse for about 10 hours in the day leading up to the performance. And Elsewhere shows do not utilize a director or stage manager: their process is entirely ensemble-led. Actors will make their own performance choices, pick their own costumes, and collectively decide how to tell the story.

And with at least a third of the cast changing between the two performances of each play, the whole story will take on new directions and new meanings as different cast members bring their own interpretation to the text.

Elsewhere usually stages their 90-min shows in unconventional spaces like bars, art galleries, basements, and occasionally folks' living rooms. But they are thrilled to bring their ragtag work to a classy joint for once.

$25.00 per person
20% discount for Agecroft members

Frozen Treats, Live Beats

  • 1001 Riverview Parkway Richmond, VA, 23224 United States (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Take a break from the workday and enjoy live music and frozen treats in Downtown Richmond with Venture Richmond’s new lunchtime pop-up series, Frozen Treats, Live Beats.

This free pop-up series brings eight live music performances to different locations throughout Downtown Richmond and Manchester, making it easy to step away from the desk, meet up with coworkers, and enjoy a little live music during the lunch hour.

The series takes place on select Thursdays from 12:00–1:00 PM.

The first 100 attendees at each event will receive a free frozen treat. Most locations will feature Richmond favorite Gelati Celesti, serving a complimentary scoop of their handcrafted ice cream. The May 7 pop-up will feature a free sweet treat from Daisy's.

After the first 100 treats are claimed, additional frozen treats will be available for purchase.

June 25: Founded in Richmond, VA in 2020 by John Hulley, Pay Rent Brass Band began as a way to make rent and quickly became a force of its own. Forged in the streets and dark bars of Richmond, Pay Rent is a tight six-piece brass band that never takes itself too seriously. One moment the audience is dancing to Destiny’s Child, the next they’re belting out The Circle of Life. Known for their love of video game music, Pay Rent brings the same intensity and care to their gaming sets as their pop, brass, and Latin staples. Their Sonic the Hedgehog set showcases a deep respect for the medium, while their Mega Man 3 show proves that brass playing can be just as technically demanding as the games that inspired it.

Summer Music Series - Dirk Quinn Band

Pack a picnic and arrive early to explore the gardens of Agecroft Hall. Gates open at 6pm.

Dirk Quinn is the guitarist for the jazz/funk band that coincidentally bears his name. Based out of Philadelphia, the group travels extensively throughout the US and Canada. Utilizing over a decade of steady performing, they've developed a unique and sincere style - one that appeals to a wide variety of music listeners with fans ranging from the beard stroking jazz aficionados to the jam band hippies.

The band’s infectious energy and musical interplay routinely attract listeners that are admittedly more accustomed to lyric-based music. With great melodic sensibilities, rhythmic experimentation and an accessible modern edge, the Dirk Quinn Band is jazz/funk improvisation at its most engaging!

 Elsewhere Shakespeare presents “Henry V”

Elsewhere Shakespeare presents “Henry V”

About the play

Henry V tells the story of King Henry's conquest of France. Full of rousing motivational speeches about the brotherhood of soldiers, it shines a light on the nature of leadership and the costs of war. Estimated run time: 90 minutes

About the performance

Weather permitting, this intimate performance will be staged outdoors in the sunken garden of Agecroft Hall. Audience members are encouraged to bring along seat cushions, blankets, and/or lawn chairs on which to sit during the 90-minute production. In the event of inclement weather, the performance will be moved inside and will take place in the Williams Room of Agecroft Hall.

About the company

Elsewhere Shakespeare is a small collective of actor-managers that began in 2019 in an attempt to apply the DIY ethos of the punk scene to producing Shakespeare. They believe that most things that make Shakespeare plays cheaper, faster, and easier to produce also make them more enjoyable both for actors and audiences.

They will only rehearse for about 10 hours in the day leading up to the performance. And Elsewhere shows do not utilize a director or stage manager: their process is entirely ensemble-led. Actors will make their own performance choices, pick their own costumes, and collectively decide how to tell the story.

And with at least a third of the cast changing between the two performances of each play, the whole story will take on new directions and new meanings as different cast members bring their own interpretation to the text.

Elsewhere usually stages their 90-min shows in unconventional spaces like bars, art galleries, basements, and occasionally folks' living rooms. But they are thrilled to bring their ragtag work to a classy joint for once.

$25.00 per person
20% discount for Agecroft members

Richmond plant friends, the sun is out, the humidity is rising, and our indoor jungles are pushing out massive new growth. That means it is officially time to chop, prop, and come hang out! Pack up your plant-mobiles and get ready for our absolute favorite weekend tradition. We are taking over River City Roll for a massive afternoon of incredible plants, ice-cold drinks, and those amazing local community vibes.

The Essentials: Free to attend, family-friendly, dog-friendly, and plenty of space to grab food and a drink while you browse.

◙ What’s Happening

The Famous Free Swap Table: The true heart of our community. Bring a healthy plant or a fresh cutting to leave on the table, and take a beautiful new one home with you. It is completely free and the perfect way to expand your collection.

30+ Local Vendors & Makers: We have hand-picked an incredible lineup of local backyard growers, rare plant collectors, and artisan makers. You will find everything from hard-to-find tropicals and beautiful everyday houseplants to handmade pottery and unique plant art.
