1. Friday Cheers

Friday Cheers is still going strong, and this week, our very own, very talented Natalie Prass is headlining. Remember how she lives here, our very town of Richmond? And remember how she’s extremely gifted and like candy to your ears? And remember how Susan Howson got to interview her?

2. Hot in Herre: 2000’s Dance Party

The Cha Cha Slide. The Dougie. The 1, 2 Step. Bring back all of your favorite dance moves from the early 2000’s this weekend, for one night only. Or, as many nights as you want, really. There are no “Anti-2000’s-Dance-Moves” police. But if there were, they would definitely be off duty on Friday.

3. Strawberry Fields Festival

Pick them! Step on them! Put them on a shortcake! Make a jam! Smear them on your face like war paint! Throw them at your friends! These are all things you can do with strawberries at a strawberry festival. Oh, and eat them. Definitely do that.

4. Castleburg Brewery Opening

Wha…what? A new brewery?

5. Spring Y’Art Sale at Hardywood

The Spring Y’Art Sale…like a yard sale but with art! Fill up your home with some local art! Even bring your own art to sell or trade! And hey, drink some local beer while you’re at it! Let’s be honest, the only thing better than an art sale at Hardywood is an art sale at Hardywood with a punny title.

• Sunday, May 29th • 1:00-5:00 PM
