Eight years of coffee, art, music, and community! Eight years of coffee, art, music, and community! Since opening @urbanhangsuiterva at 3rd and Broad in 2018, @likethefruit has created something much bigger than a coffee shop. It’s become a favorite gathering places for Richmond’s artists, storytellers, neighbors, and changemakers.

This Saturday, October 31, the Suite celebrates eight years of bringing people together. Here’s to the Suite and everyone who has made this little corner of Broad St feel like home.

And as Kelli continues her Save the Suite campaign, there’s no better time to show this special Richmond gathering place some love. Stop by, grab a coffee, and consider supporting the campaign.

A powerful message on a colorful new mural by Rich A powerful message on a colorful new mural by Richmond artist Emily Herr (@herrsuite) at the corner of Broad and Staples Mill, next to Wendy’s.

Titled Compassion, the mural features a series of overlapping, multicolored faces, each distinct but connected to the others. Emily’s message stretching across the top reads, “We have to learn to see ourselves in each other.”

A @vcuarts grad, Emily has spent more than a decade creating murals in Richmond and beyond, often drawing on local history, community and the stories that connect us. Emily’s latest work offers a friendly reminder about empathy and recognizing a little of ourselves in the people around us.

🎨 A favorite little outdoor art gallery tucked awa 🎨 A favorite little outdoor art gallery tucked away in Richmond’s Museum District. On most weekends, @raccoon_retail transforms a stretch of sidewalk along the 3400 block of W. Grace into an eclectic collection of original art, vintage finds, and just about anything else you might stumble upon.

What started as a local hauling and moving business has become a way to give secondhand treasures another chance at finding a home. It’s also become an unexpected showcase for artists, including @slyce_graziano and @liamweis.art. Behind it all is someone who seems to appreciate not just the things he finds, but the stories they carry and the people he meets along the way.

And here’s a nice little twist, Raccoon Retail accepts canned goods in exchange for merchandise credit! You can find this wonderfully unconventional sidewalk gallery at 3400 W. Grace Street on Saturdays, weather permitting.

The 21st annual @richmondzombiewalk brought out a The 21st annual @richmondzombiewalk brought out a collection of rotting Richmonders and questionable characters shuffling through @carytownrva today. Prizes were up for grabs for the most disgusting zombies, best undead couples, and the coveted Zombie of the Year, with a real brain donated by Richmond’s @restinpiecesrva.

This fun-loving tradition began back in 2005, when Richmond’s Roger Barr organized the first walk with about 100 zombies. This year’s event also raised money for SAVE, a nonprofit dedicated to suicide prevention.

❤️ A little more heart for Richmond! Local artist ❤️ A little more heart for Richmond! Local artist George Arturo (@visiblyhidden_) is looking for exterior walls around the River City to paint his pixelated hearts, inspired by the classic video game The Legend of Zelda. And he’s offering to do it for free. 

The project is called @findyourhe.art, a growing collection of 8-bit hearts popping up in public spaces.

“The concept behind painting these heart containers is to place them in locations of communal gathering. Places where your hearts/health meter can be replenished,” he explains.

Have an exterior wall that could use a little heart? George is looking for more places around Richmond to bring the project to life. Reach out to him at @visiblyhidden_ if you’d like to offer a spot.
