43rd Street Festival of the Arts Canceled
Yet, another popular event falls to Covid-19.
Statement from the organizers.
We are sorry to announce that the 43rd Street Festival for 2020 has been cancelled. There appears to be no way in the near future to comply with RVA size restrictions on gatherings and make the show happen safely for all.
Please support local artisans and galleries who carry their work, including 43rd Street Gallery, Crossroads Art Center, and Shockoe Bottom Clay.
This is a major disappointment for the neighborhood. It’s also a major financial hit for CARITAS. Traditionally this festival kicks off their fall fundraising. With the festival canceled they’ll need help. You can donate here and get more information on their work.
