Artisan Village
Shop and support an array of unique independent artists and small business owners.
Creative Kids Hangout
A distinct place for youth to play, explore and expand with guided and non-guided activities.
Main Stage
Dance to live music and enjoy the energy and crowd engagement throughout the evening.

What an amazing new event! It brings all of the things we love about Richmond together in one spot: creative businesses, arts and culture and the restaurants at the market.
