Welcome to the new RVAMAG.com

by | Jun 5, 2017 | COMMUNITY

Our new site has been many months in the making and re-affirms our commitment to delivering new and innovative ways to tell stories from Richmond and Virginia. Since our first issue in 2005, our editorial and design team has created a brand that has become one of the leading cultural ambassadors for the city of Richmond. This is an exciting time for Richmond and we are proud to be part of such a dynamic city.

Editor note: We are in BETA and working out a few technical issues, thank you for your patience!

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is. Catch me at @majormajor____

Be Kind, Rewind! Welcome to Monster Video

On a hot day in June, while visiting The Veiled Mirror and talking with them about collecting old books and DVDs, I was told that next door would be opening as a VHS video store soon. All throughout July, several of my friends who knew of my movie library habit...
