Calling Artists and Makers!
Artist Registration Now Open
The Holiday Arts Festival returns in 2020 with a hybrid online and curbside event!
Artist Registration for the Online Arts and Crafts Hub is now open. This online directory for artists and makers is a space to share and/or sell work during the holiday season. But it’s more than just about retail… All artists are welcome to post their work in this non-juried, creative space!
Arts & Crafts Hub Early Bird Registration Deadline: Wed, Nov 4, 11:59PM

Creative Self-Care
Take Care of Yourself This Election Season
Heading into a stressful 2020 election, we’ve invited artists to share some simple ideas and reflections on the theme of creativity and self-care. The Creative Self-Care videos will be released on our website and social media. Follow us on Instagram, Facebook or YouTube and, if you feel inspired, share your own stories of creative self-care! #creativeselfcare #richmondartcenter

Día de los Muertos
Ofrenda Activity for Día de los Muertos
Traditionally a Día de los Muertos altar is an intentional space dedicated to a person or people that have passed away. Use this activity sheet to create your own altar in memory of someone that has passed. You can include anything you want to celebrate them; photos, foods they like, flowers, etc. There is no right or wrong way to use this template to remember a love one!
