CultureWorks, 1906-A N. Hamilton St.
Now in its ninth year, this eagerly awaited month-long festival brings together a diverse array of artistic and cultural festivities. This year's theme, "All-Access: Empowerment through Expression," celebrates community, inclusivity, and accessibility within the arts and culture sector. artoberVA 2024 aims to inspire and encourage participants from all backgrounds to experience and express themselves in the rich arts and cultural community. A highlight of this year's theme is the curation of "Pay-What-You-Will" (PWYW) events. This initiative empowers patrons to contribute to admission at a price point within their means, fostering accessibility and inclusivity. Throughout October, CultureWorks is dedicated to providing and promoting opportunities for everyone to engage with and be inspired by the vibrant creative landscape within Richmond and the Tri-Cities.
artoberVA is committed to inclusivity and accessibility by offering special events and programs tailored to diverse audiences, specifically underrepresented communities. The festival breaks down barriers through "Pay What You Will" events, promoting ADA-compliant venues, and hosting educational programming to ensure that art and culture are accessible to everyone.
artoberVA connects artists, performers, organizations, and audiences to build a vibrant and inclusive cultural community. The festival features a month-long lineup of events, workshops, performances, and community gatherings, highlighting the role of arts and culture in fostering connected and resilient communities. Join us as we come together to connect with, embrace, and celebrate the rich cultural tapestry of our region, with the common goal of ensuring that arts and culture are accessible to all.
CultureWorks is thrilled to feature many organizations in artoberVA this year under the 'pay-what-you-will' theme, championing inclusive and accessible participation. Please note that each event is organized independently by the participating organizations. This means that the planning, coordination, ticketing, and execution of the events are solely the responsibility of the respective participating organizations.
