🔥Hear ye, hear ye, all creatives, artists, and sketchers ...we are delighted to resurrect RVA DRINK & DRAW for a special one night only event! As part of the Dragon Fire Tavern art pop-up in July, a month of exciting fantasy-based 21+ events, RVA DRINK & DRAW is an alternative themed live model drawing event for artists of all skill levels, hosted by local professional artist and goblin, Brit Austin Art! 🔥

🔥 Roll for Initiative and get ready to draw our renaissance model of many talents, titles, and tales, Chiara Scuro as she ignites the creative flame under those wings! The poses will be fire and we promise it won’t drag-on.

There will be plenty of breaks to grab a spirit at BLACK IRIS’ bar with an assortment of beer, wine, mixed drinks, NA options along with themed drink specials!

🔥 Admission to this 21+ event includes art materials and basic drawing demonstration! Supplies will be provided, but feel free to bring your own as well! Tickets $15 until July 8th, then $20 until the event. Buy advance to save your spot!

🔥 Want to attend but don’t feel like you can draw a stick figure? No worries! This inclusive space is welcome and encouraging to all folks who want to draw, haven’t picked up a pencil in 90 years, doodle in their dreams, or are just plain curious.

Expect this kind of drawing session to be a bit different from others; while it will be filled with artistic education, it will also have a cozy, friendly atmosphere with the occasional punderful dad joke from our host. Linkin’ Bio or TheDragonFireTavern.com for TICKETS and info on all July’s Dragon Fire Tavern events!

🦌 Deerest Fwends,

I couldn’t go another day without telling you how wonderful my Friday night was. I Had an incredible evening with “Drinking Dragons” an art show, bar crawl and market featuring drinking 🐉 dragons.

[edited]

In the last collage, I wanted you to see the view of the gallery show and how positively full it was. This is so hard to pull off in Richmond in summer and I’m so happy to see RVA turn out for fantasy.

Like most ladies, I can’t resist a construction site PPE poster 🏗️ So I had to show off my fit along with the image.

Sincerely 🦌 Deerly,
Ginneerly Faerly

I had such a magical time at @faefestcville 🖤🧚‍♀️

I got to spend the weekend dancing as a dark fae, and my wings even survived the first half of the day before the heat got to them.

@ixartpark is absolutely beautiful—if you’ve never been, it’s definitely worth checking out.

This weekend left me feeling inspired to create more dark fantasy costumes and characters. I’m already thinking about making a massive winged dark fae stilt character. 😈🖤

Huge thanks to @shanudom for capturing so many photos and videos! 🖤

🧚 Welcome to special guest Pixx Pockett, who is extremely gruntled to be representing the Goblin Embassy at the FAERY BALL! They are fresh from the mountainous region of Goblonia, and have set off to meet all the strange and unwittingly generous people of the realms. They enjoy exploring new and conveniently unlocked places or being in large crowds while loud and distracting things are happening.

Join Pixx Pockett on June 5th as you step into the enchanted Fae realm when Richmond's FAERY BALL (21+) materializes! Prepare for a night of magic & wonder as you spread your wings & join fellow Fae for an immersive evening celebrating all things magic!

DETAILS:
• Sip on Fae-themed concoctions
• Get captured at our Fae Photo Station
• Show off your best Fae look during the "Faery Costume Contest" (hosted by @_chiarascuro ) with a special category for "Best Faery Wings”.
• Visit our enchanted vendors
• Dance the night away surrounded by fellow fae and other magical creatures in an immersive environment, plush with possibilities!

THE TORCH IS PASSED!
Pleased as punch to say the blood sacrifice and the ceremonial dance has concluded in the anointing of our NEW DIRECTORS @spamuelchan and @devl.ish from founder @carmel_clavin !
.
Carmel is staying on as the Global Arts Exchange Manager and programmer with the festival.
Sam has been with the festival as Gaming Tsar since 2023 and Dev joined the madness first as a cabaret performer, then a double feature show, and now a full blown Grand High Poobah. So excited!
