Stay connected to Downtown Richmond. Sign up for the Venture Richmond enews.
We’re collecting and connecting the friends and champions of Downtown. Our wish is to bring together a new group of people, a group that represents a horizontal slice of the community. We want true diversity in ethnicity, age, gender, sexual orientation, profession, religion, appearance, etc. We want residents, employees, students, club owners, musicians, artists, educators, biochemists, researchers and others to sign up as our partners.
