Art Works is a gallery and art center. Open Tuesday - Sunday 11 am - 5 pm - come can see and buy art by Virginia artists. The art center is located in historic Manchester -a once forgotten area of Richmond, just ½ mile from downtown across the 14th Street Bridge. Now Manchester is thriving with condos, apartments, cafes, retail stores, a newly expanded and renovated courthouse and green space. We represent over 100 Virginia artists and present national and international artists in monthly shows. There are 80 studios and 6 galleries at Art Works. Many artists work in their studios; some use their studios as mini-galleries. The public is welcome to spend an afternoon viewing art, visiting with artists as well as dining at the café – adjoining the art center. The public is invited to our monthly all-media, juried art shows, the 4th Friday of each month and are encouraged to participate in our programs, shows and events. Art Works engages in many community events and festivals. We lease the galleries to individuals and groups to hold their special events, meetings and seminars. We also offer Fun Days and creative activity for businesses, government and organizations. Murals designed by Art Works’ Glenda Kotchish, painted by Fun Day participants hang in the Richmond Federal Reserve, VCU MCV and the Virginia State Capitol. Art Works is involved in community programs and partners with local schools, FURS (Friends United with Richmond Shelters) and with the festivals in Manchester and many other non-profit organizations. We hold fundraisers where the proceeds go to a local community organization such as Blackwell Elementary School arts program. Our mission is to provide artists with a full service art center where art can be created, displayed and promoted. It is also our goal to bring art, music, events, and programs that enrich the city and the people who live in and visit our community. Handicap accessible, free admission, family friendly, LGBTQ+ friendly, pet friendly.
