A message from our executive director and board president
Hello Friends,
In 2025, Richmond Art Center celebrates 89 years. It’s remarkable to imagine that through significant events like World War II, the Civil Rights Movement, and incredible technological advancements, the art center has remained here in Richmond, providing space for the community to make and experience art.
In today’s polarized era, many people are feeling uncertain and fearful about what the future holds—and we share those concerns.
During times of change, our goal is to continue offering programs that promote the benefits of art-making for people of all ages and backgrounds. We also aim to support artists who address our discontents, offering critique, provocation, hope, and healing.
As we look toward 2025, we ask for your support to help Richmond Art Center continue as an anchor for art and community in Richmond.
Please review our FY23/24 achievements and consider the impact our programs can have in the coming years.
Thank you for being part of our journey.
José Rivera
Executive Director
Nettie Hoge
