VisArts Chili Throwdown
The VisArts Chili Throwdown is the perfect kick-off for the fall season. Participating restaurants from all over Richmond contribute their best chili, which is taste-tested by both a blind jury and the event’s attendees. Join us in the heart of the Fan for an evening of delicious chili, handmade ceramics, and live music!
Stay tuned for more information about the 11th Annual VisArts Chili Throwdown coming this October.
