Carytown Farmer’s Market

Museum District Walking Tour

The founding of the Confederate soldiers home initiated the development of the area known as the Museum District. Home to the Virginia Historical Society, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, schools, businesses, churches and residences, this area has played an important role in the westward expansion of the city. Meet on the northeast corner of Grove Avenue and Sheppard Street. $10 ($5 members), unless otherwise noted. Most do not require reservations. (804) 649-0711 x301.

Flight Night @ Secco

Mon Sep 17 12:00 pm
Trying new things is like hitting the refresh button on our existence: it delivers us from complacency, engages our senses and forces us to question our tastes, values and, in turn, our very nature. Yet, more often than not, most of us will opt for the familiar over the unknown. Every Monday.
