43rd Street Studios is deeply honored to announce a special celebration:

"40 Years at 43rd Street: Robin Cage. Works in Clay.”
This spring marks four decades since Robin Cage transformed 1410 W. 43rd Street into a ceramic studio and artisan gallery, a space that has come to define her lifelong devotion to ceramics. To mark this milestone, Robin is unveiling a new collection of her work, created this year and focusing on pots made in Porcelain clay.  She has been able to experiment with new forms and glazing since passing the torch to Joanna Gragnani, the current owner of 43rd Street Studios, where a vibrant community of ceramic artists now gathers to teach, create, and connect.

For more than forty years, Robin Cage has poured her heart into crafting timeless stoneware pottery. Her work celebrates the beauty in the everyday. Subtle glazes and thoughtful designs make her work far more than functional—it becomes a quiet companion to the daily rituals of life by elevating something as simple as a morning cup of coffee or a shared meal. Her pieces can be found at a local restaurant, Sen Organic Small Plate, where they continue to touch lives of the patrons who share a meal together.  She is also represented locally at Shockoe Bottom Clay.

Looking back on this remarkable journey, it’s clear that Robin's work has always been about more than clay and glaze—it’s about connection. It’s about honoring the quiet beauty that surrounds us and the way craft can transform even the simplest moments into something extraordinary.

Robin’s mastery in high-fired, reduction pottery and her unwavering work ethic have earned her a place among the region’s most respected and passionate artisans. At 43rd Street Studios, we are proud to celebrate her legacy with this exhibition—a chance to experience her latest works, which reflect both her rich history and her ongoing evolution as an artist.
The exhibition Opening will be on April 18, from 6-8 PM, with a full day of viewing and purchasing on April 19, from 10 AM to 4 PM. 

We invite the community to join us in honoring Robin's legacy—her artistry, her dedication, and the countless moments that have been touched by her hands.

Every Saturday, April 5 - November 1, 2025 | Rockwood Park

Join for a vibrant celebration of Latino culinary excellence and local craftsmanship, where you can indulge in the tastes of authentic Mexican salsa, empanadas, and sweet delights from a stellar lineup of vendors. Whether you’re a foodie seeking your next culinary adventure or a local vendor eager to showcase your craft, this is your invitation to be part of a cherished community gathering.

Find something new for your garden – and all your tried-and-true favorites, too – at Richmond’s favorite plant sale, Herbs Galore!

Bring a wagon and shop from dozens of nurseries and specialty vendors spread out on the Carriage House Lawn offering an amazing array of annuals, perennials, shrubs, trees and vegetables, plus garden-inspired accessories and gifts.

There will be plenty of herbs and herbal products, of course, some featuring chamomile, the 2025 Herb of the Year!

Throughout the day, plant experts will present demos and talks from the main stage, between sets of entertaining music from the Richmond Indigenous Gourd Orchestra. Budding young gardeners can try out crafts and activities at the Education Station.

Why not make a day of it? Park your purchases at the free plant holding area and go! The gardens and grounds at Maymont will be in lush bloom, and audio tours of the Italian Garden are free. Local food vendors will offer a selection of treats and mimosas.

The Cause- This roughly 5k fun run is being held to honor the memory of Christian Wood, a talented young kayaker who lost his life while paddling on the James River in 2018. The proceeds from this race will be used to fund the work of Friends of the James River Park (jamesriverpark.org), the Christian Wood Scholarship Fund to send underprivileged kids to Passages Adventure Camp, and the programming of the JRPS Education Department. Friends of the James River Park is the largest nonprofit support group for the James River Park System. Our mission is to protect, expand, and enhance the Park.

This is the fifth year of this event in memory of Christian Wood. Christian was a senior at Trinity, an elite kayaker, and a regular counselor and instructor at Passages. A talented student and amateur filmmaker, he found his joy in the rapids and whitewater of the James River. In 2018, despite his kayaking skills and protective gear, he lost his life in a tragic accident in a hydraulic on the James. We hope that you’ll join us for this fun event, and help us honor Christian's memory by expanding educational opportunities and helping improve our James River Park System. Please sign up to race or make a donation today! 

2025 Changes- The race this year will be pretty much the same as it has been in previous years. The only real change is that t-shirts will be available for purchase as an option for those who want them, rather than automatically included with race registration like in previous years. Race participants will receive a completion medal, and the top two racers in each age group will receive additional prizes.

100% of t-shirt sales will go to the Christian Wood Scholarship Fund, which is one of the causes that benefits from this race. T-Shirts can be purchased through the FOJRP Bonfire site here- bonfire.com/wood-river-run-2025-t-shirts

The Course- This family-friendly 5k run/walk will take participants on through some of the James River Park System's most scenic and accessible views. One of the most popular swimming and sunbathing spots in the JRPS, Pony Pasture Rapids receives almost a quarter of a million visitors annually. The main entrance is located off Riverside Drive two miles east of the Huguenot Bridge. The specific course route is still being established, and participants should expect to be on some road, trail, and gravel path elements.

Well-behaved leashed dogs and off-road capable strollers are welcome, particularly if you are walking! Dogs must be leashed, with no exceptions, and we ask that extra care be taken to ensure that leashes do not present a tripping hazard to other participants. We want you to be able to include your furry friends, and it has to be done in a way that does not impact other race attendees. Part of the course will be along an active roadway, which is something you might need to be aware of when planning whether or not you are comfortable bringing your dog.

You are cordially invited to join Dr. Danny Avula and the community for a Day of Service and Celebration! We’d love for you to join us again for a celebration and reflection of Mayor Avula’s first few months in office, followed by service projects across the City. Come together to give back, make a difference, and celebrate the power of kindness. Everyone is welcome to participate—whether you're lending a hand or simply joining in the festivities. Let's make this day unforgettable!

Calling all our bookish friends! Start your 2025 reading challenge out strong!

We'll have some happy hour specials to enjoy while you peruse your new reads!

Profs and Pints Richmond presents: “The Physics of Baseball,” with Scott Paulson, professor of physics and interdisciplinary liberal studies at James Madison University.

Profs and Pints is offering Richmond-area baseball fans an even bigger treat than Cracker Jack, an exploration of the physics underlying their beloved sport.

Professor Scott Paulson, who regularly teaches introductory physics classes that make the physics behind real-world phenomena accessible to all, will discuss the forces and phenomena that come into play in baseball during pitching, batting, and fielding. He’ll toss you basic physics concepts that help explain how baseball’s routine plays got to be that way, and he’ll explain what’s going on in some situations where the laws of physics seem to be violated by what’s happening on the field.

Ever wondered why curveballs curve or knuckleballs behave so strangely? You’ll learn how Newton’s laws and the Magnus force explain how pitchers get drastically different results from subtle differences in their releases.

Curious about what exactly the “sweet spot” of the bat is? Ever wondered how big an advantage batters get from the thin air of Mile High Stadium? We’ll explore the physics of the batted ball, examining the phenomena of waves and analyzing the interaction of ball, bat and batter with the help of high-speed video.

During one of the more exciting scenarios in a baseball game—the close play at the plate—fans often see outfielders throw to an infielder rather than directly to home. We’ll look at the pros and cons of this relay play, known as a “cut-off,” in the context of the physics of projectile motion.

Finally, we will also look into high-profile cheating scandals involving corked bats and doctored balls. Dr. Paulson will present models to explain how these alterations to the equipment can benefit the batter and pitcher respectively, and he’ll discuss how much these models are backed up by data.

These few hours in a brewpub will forever enhance your enjoyment of time at the ballpark. (Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. The talk starts 30 minutes later.)

Book & Author Event is a well-loved literary event that brings the Richmond community together every spring with five nationally-known authors and their exciting new books. Now in its 80th year, the Book & Author event is the longest-running event of its kind in the nation. 

Since the end of World War II, Richmonders have gathered in the spring to celebrate the love of reading and the tradition of writing. Born of a creative partnership between the Junior League of Richmond (JLR) and Miller & Rhoads in 1947, the best and the brightest of the literary world descend on Richmond each year for the Book & Author Event, where they discuss their creative process, inspirations, and latest best-sellers. Previous authors include Robert Frost, Mary Higgins Clark, and Emily Henry (and so many more)! 

Year after year, the event draws sellout crowds, leading it to become the longest running event of its kind in the country. In 2020 and 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the event took place virtually; however, through our virtual events, we have been able to reach so many more individuals. Beginning in 2022, the event is now hosted through a hybrid format to continue engaging crowds both near and far to Richmond. 

The Junior League of Richmond invites you to be a part of the longest running event of its kind as we celebrate the 80th Book & Author Event on Thursday, May 8, 2025. The Book & Author Luncheon will begin at 12:00 P.M. at Sam Miller’s Restaurant. The Evening Event will begin at 6:00 P.M. with a cocktail hour and heavy hors d’oeuvres at the John Marshall Ballrooms. The authors presentations will begin in-person and virtually at 7:00 P.M. The Evening Event will be hosted once again by Bob Deans.

WEAR RVA: An Unforgettable Night of Empowerment, Fashion, and Philanthropy

Get ready for an unforgettable evening at WEAR RVA, a luxury event where fashion, community, and empowerment come together. This isn’t just a fashion show—it’s a celebration of young women, self-expression, and philanthropy. Join us for an evening that will inspire and make a lasting impact on our community.

On Thursday, May 8, 2025, at the stunning Dover Hall, WEAR RVA will return with an exhilarating full-production fashion show unlike any other. Featuring 45+ models from Richmond-area high schools, this event celebrates everyBODY and the incredible journey these young women undertake to become confident, powerful, and unapologetically themselves.

This year’s event will not only showcase the newest from local boutiques and renowned Richmond designers but will also feature an exclusive partnership with Children’s Hospital of Richmond (CHoR) at VCU. Proceeds from this year’s event will directly support CHoR’s mental and behavioral health services at the Virginia Treatment Center for Children (VTCC). Together, we can help ensure that the next generation of youth in our community receives the care and support they need to thrive.

This year marks a thrilling new chapter for WEAR RVA. Founded by Amber Kay Reinink Pelletier and Taylor Pitera, this event has been an emblem of empowerment since its inception. Their vision—to create a community where high school girls are celebrated, empowered, and supported—has blossomed into a Richmond tradition, impacting over 250 teen models and raising more than $30,000 in scholarship funds. Now, as the organization deepens its commitment to the future of youth mental health, we invite you to stand with us in support of these incredible teens.

This year’s luxury, immersive experience will take you on a journey of elegance, inspiration, and philanthropy. But it’s more than just a night of glamour—it’s a testament to what happens when a community comes together to raise young women up, to help them discover their true potential, and to support a cause that touches the lives of children in need.
