"The rich do not possess wealth. It possesses them." - Ben Franklin, "Poor Richard's Almanac"
Richmond has a great art scene, in part because of Virginia Commonwealth University, one of the best art schools in the country. On the first Friday of each month, from 7-10 p.m, a hub of galleries host a grand party that spills into the streets. Art fans and socialites hop from show to show, serenaded by musicians both indoors and out. Galleries feature national and international artists of rare talent. Admission is free. Wine & beer $3.
