Just wanted to put the word out about a new Howard Allen Events show that will be in Richmond Virginia September 23-24, 2017. This show will debut the weekend after the Alexandria show. The application is available on Zapp. As many of you know, Richmond only has ONE two day arts festival a year called Arts In the Park which is always the first weekend of May in the Spring. Richmond has needed another art show in the fall for a long time and having it in the West End will be great! This show also has a Friday set up!!

 Howard Alan Events proudly presents the West End Art Festival in Richmond, Virginia! The show will take place the weekend following the legendary Alexandria King Street Art Festival, completing the September Mid-Atlantic tour (Columbia, Alexandria and Richmond). The show will set up on the streets of West Broad Village, a masterfully designed urban village in the heart of Richmond’s West End. Brick streets lined with maple trees connect charming, stately single family attached homes to shopping, dining and entertainment experiences you won’t find anywhere else in Richmond. The festival also has a convenient Friday set-up.

  • Leo,

    I should have been more specific,,,, two day outdoor shows. Ive known about the 43rd street show for a long time. When I applied,,, Robin got all upset that I did not include a self addressed stamped envelope to return my images which was optional on the application. I stopped by the next day and brought her the envelope with the stamp on it and she told me that I could keep it and in fact mail something to myself! Whoa,,,ok, well alrighty then! Maybe she was having a bad day, who knows.

    Another show in the fall that is a one day show is Arts Around the lake at U of R,,,,I did that last year for kicks but there was not much of a crowd and the weather was really nice. 

  • What? Only one art show in Richmond and none in the Fall?

    1) What about the 43rd Street Festival of the Arts on September 16, 2017. This is a well juried, one day show with strong community support for 75 artists. It is organized by the 43rd Street Art Gallery and serves as a fund raiser for Caritas, a not for profit providing services to the homeless and/or addicted. I've done the show a few times and it is a good show. I wish the HAE were not the weekend after.

    2) The Visual Arts Center of Richmond Craft + Design Show in November

    3) The Craftsmen's Classic Art & Craft Festival in Richmond as the end of October. It's not my cup of tea but does work for some.
