Join the Valentine for Free Admission in honor of our newest exhibition, “FANCY: Costumes, Characters and the Richmond Masque”
From the dazzling splendor of 19th-century fancy dress balls to the shadowed streets on Halloween, dressing up in costumes is an opportunity to escape the ordinary. “FANCY: Costumes, Characters and the Richmond Masque” explores the many ways Richmonders have used creative clothing to disguise themselves for frivolity, celebration, and performance.
