Specialties
Art Works is an art center ½ mile from downtown Richmond VA. We have 75 artist studios and 5 galleries. Open 6 days a week (Tuesday-Sunday), come browse and see and buy art. Noon — 6 p.m.
We host weddings, parties, meetings and seminars in the gallery.
If you are an artist, you can rent a studio, wall and submit your artwork to our monthly All Media Shows. Then on the 4th Friday of each month we have a big party — opening reception for all the new exhibits in the 5 galleries. It’s free and open to the public. Meet international, national and local artists. See art of ALL kinds. It’s a wonderful place.

Business Owner
«I am a painter and ceramic artist. But I’m also a business lady and love being part of the community, solving problems with creative solutions. I have programmed computers and been an analyst as well as a banker, so all these skills I use at Art Works. I love a party, so 4th Friday receptions at Art Works is perfect for me — a party every month… except December that is. »
