UPDATE: THE GROWRVA MARKET AT FIRST FRIDAYS IS CANCELLED TONIGHT DUE TO THE INSUFFERABLE SLEET DRIZZLE.
(but Quirk is nice and toasty and not at all sleety inside, so don’t let that keep you from the arts!)
Here at GrowRVA HQ, we’re ready to kick out the slush and enjoy the great outdoors, and we’ve got 3 markets in two days to help you do the same.

Tonight at The First Friday Market next to Quirk Gallery, we’ve got food, jewelry, and crafts for your art walk. They’ve got not one, not two, but THREE artists worth checking out – Sarah Hand, Amy Rice, and Aimee Joyeaux.
Tomorrow is all-day market madness with a great line-up of vendors at the South of the James Market in Forest Hill Park from 9-12. Mrs. Yoder’s Donuts are back, plus Alchemy, a half dozen food trucks, and plenty of farmers and makers.
