Good morning!
I want to share some important news that impacts 9 Muses RVA. I apologize this reaches you so last minute. The last couple weeks have been a bit chaotic, and I honestly thought this message had been posted when in fact, it had not.
A number of outside factors arose in recent weeks that will necessitate that we find a NEW LOCATION for 9 Muses RVA in 2025.
This is bitter sweet, because the space here on W Clay St is our first, and it's where magic happened in 2024 that allowed us to turn a mere dream and vision, into a reality where we now feature more than 50 amazing Richmond artists.
We've absolutely LOVED being here and have enjoyed nothing but immense support from our building owners and everyone who made this happen. However, the time has come to pivot toward the next exciting phase for us.
I am beyond excited for this next chapter - one that will allow us to begin offering more classes and workshops, feature even more local artists, as well as host events and exhibits.
A huge "thank each" goes out to each and every one of the artists and makers who have been partnering with 9 Muses RVA, and made this such an unforgettable year! You all are such genuine, supportive, amazing human beings; and I am so happy to be able to call you my friends and collaborators.
We've been working with our artists on transition plans. I can't promise exactly when we will be in a new space, but know that it is coming.
In the meantime, our store will be open TODAY (1-6pm) and TOMORROW (1-4pm) for last minute holiday shopping! Come in and browse, and say "hi".
During the transition, we will be as active as ever. Our artists' works will still be available for purchase on our website and Instagram stores.
In addition, we have many creative plans for themed events, classes, markets and more around town! And, we are working toward developing a podcast series so we can better feature artists and creatives in Richmond via in-depth discussions. Stay tuned!
Come see us today (1-6pm). 3310 W Clay St. Suite 100 in Scott's Addition.
Happy Holidays!
