À propos de ce contenu audio

We sit down with the organizers behind the Richmond Ren Faire to explore how this grassroots nonprofit grew from a small fundraiser into a full-scale, two-day immersive experience happening April 18–19 at Dorey Park. From blacksmithing and illuminated manuscripts to historic European and East Asian martial arts, real jousting on horseback, live improv storytelling, and multicultural food vendors — this fair is about much more than costumes.

This conversation covers:

What actually happens when you walk through the gates of a Renaissance Fair

Preserving historic trades in a modern, automated world

Building a Richmond-specific narrative (no kings and queens required)

A multicultural approach to Renaissance history

Supporting local artisans, makers, educators, and performers

Community-building, slow culture, and hands-on creativity

The long-term vision for a permanent historic trades facility in Richmond

📅 Richmond Renaissance Fair: April 18–19

📍 Dorey Park, Henrico County, VA
