Yelper Party: Saved By The Yelp

by | Oct 10, 2017 | EVENTS

The 90s were all that and a bag of chips! It’s everyone’s favorite decade for a reason. We’re doing it big and throwing it back to the days when AIM was the closest thing to texting, we rocked Walkmans instead of iPods, and people didn’t have pets, they had Tamagatchis. It’s our biggest event of the year: Saved By The Yelp! We’ve got an incredible lineup of sponsors ready to show you a good time. Besides the obvious eating and drinking (duh!), you’ll be able to play nostalgic 90s video games in the Galaxy Game Truck, do short flows and meditations in the Mobile Om (the country’s FIRST mobile yoga studio!), get your hair did by Katie Blue Salon, play life sized 90s games (Connect Four! Twister! Legos!), and so. much. MORE!

THE 411:

How much does it cost?
FREE with a $10 per guest donation to our charity partner Studio Two Three: A Modern Makery that provides established and aspiring artists with studio space, equipment, education and open doors. Studio Two Three is the reason why many of Richmond’s awesome small businesses exist. They will receive 100% of the donations.
