A Renaissance Faire is popping up in Jackson Ward on Friday
A mini renaissance fair is taking over Jackson Ward on Friday night. Why it matters: This is your excuse to eat giant turkey legs outside of the state fair (though in our opinion, you never need an excuse). Driving the news: The Richmond Renaissance Faire is from Virago Alley, a local nonprofit founded by Amanda Robinson, the woman behind Gallery5 in Jackson Ward, according to its website. The event is described as a fundraising kick-off to a larger fair down the road, but the schedule promises most of the fun one might expect from a traditional "Ren Fair," as the kids call it. Zoom in: Three blocks around Gallery5, where much of Friday's fair takes place, will be closed to traffic. Instead of cars on Marshall Street, attendees will find more than 75 artisans and performers — including a fairy trading post, storytellers and a court jester — and a mead pop-up bar. Things seem to get a little wilder on Clay near Gwarbar, where you can find the roasted turkey legs. Its parking lot will host the combat and bladesmith demos. Details: The Richmond Renaissance Faire is Friday, 5-10pm. Admission is free. Costumes are strongly encouraged.
