After such a problematic couple of summers, it’s good to see outdoor and local events starting to reappear in Richmond and the surrounding areas.
We’ve been so excited about it we’ve sponsored two of the biggest events in the area. The Vineyard School Summer Fair and The KAOS Art Festival covering Kingston and Richmond. But these are just two of dozens of diverse things to do in Richmond this June.
So here goes, this is a quick round up of just a few of the local events that caught our eye. These five demonstrate just how varied and exciting the events are.
KAOS
Kingston Artists Open Studios or KAOS is a group of professional, semi-professional and experienced artists living and working in the Kingston and Richmond areas.
Their unfunded, voluntary group was set up in 2010 to raise the profile of and broaden access to the visual arts in Kingston. Since then, they have built up a diverse membership of artists and makers working out of their own spaces in and around the borough and now the event also covers Richmond.
Back after a hiatus caused by the pandemic the studios are once again open to the public during two weekends this June.
When and Where:
- 11th and 12th June and again on 18th and 19th of June 2022 from 11am to 5pm
- Download the brochure with details of the studio locations in Richmond and Kingston here.
- Visit the KAOS website here to find out more about the artists, their work and discover more about the event.
The Vineyard School Summer Fair
This highly popular school fair returns on 25th June at the Vineyard School and we are very proud to have been granted the opportunity to be this year’s sponsors.
The Vineyard School Summer Fair promises to be very popular, so we’d suggest you book your tickets early here.
When and Where:
- The event takes place on Saturday 25th June from 12pm until 4pm.
