Are you looking to enjoy something wonderful this weekend? The Visual Arts Center of Richmond is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, and lots of artists, crafts people and art lovers are ready to celebrate in style! Come visit the Craft + Design Show being held at the Science Museum of Virginia. Tomorrow (Sunday) is the last day of the show, and it's open to the public, 10 AM - 5PM.
Luckily, tickets still are available at the door. Here's the fee schedule:
$8 - General Admission
$6 - Members of Visual Arts Center & Science Museum of Virginia
$6 - Students (with valid ID)
FREE children under 12 years old
FREE Parking
Fortunately, volunteer opportunities were available for me to help on Friday, as exhibitors were arriving to set up their respective booths. Using a map, a few other volunteers and I helped show the exhibitors where to park, the area on a map for their booths and sometimes helped them unload and move in items to set up. For me, it was rewarding to get involved with a community event, and over time I think it can be a good way to establish new contacts and friendships with a lot of interesting people!
Below are a few sample photos I took on Friday morning, Nov. 22nd, before the show actually began.
