Here in RVA, when the leaves begin to change color, thoughts begin to turn towards the two classic flavors of October: beer and Halloween! RVA Magazine #18, our Fall 2014 issue, celebrates both of these phenomena in fine fashion, as well as providing our usual unparalleled coverage of all the art, music, fashion, and culture this city has to offer! For starters, we bring you an expanded version of our RVA On Tap section, featuring interviews with Strangeways, Hardywood Park, and Wild Wolf breweries, along with a local’s eye view of everything happening in the local craft beer scene. And for Halloween, a truly special treat–we catch up with new GWAR vocalist Vulvatron, who fills us in on all of the Halloween traditions celebrated on her home planet of Scumdogia!
And don’t worry, all the locally-focused artistic and musical coverage you look for in every issue of RVA Magazine is waiting for you just like always. We’re bringing you interviews with Richmond Mural Project artist Meggs, as well as a spotlight on new work from local photographer Mr. Fili. Where music is concerned, we’ve profiled up-and-coming RVA bands Lightfields and Sleepwalkers. Plus, we’ll wrap up the whole issue with the results of our latest Readers Poll, letting you know what the RVA Magazine readership thinks about local food, beverages, fashions, and businesses!
