Scenes From First Fridays May 2023

by | May 9, 2023 | ART, PHOTOGRAPHY, RICHMOND NEWS

Our talented photographer Jody Adams @artbyothers__ managed to capture some splendid moments from a bustling Friday night at First Fridays in Richmond, VA, along with a few snaps from the weekend performance of Devoids at Get Tight Lounge. From people admiring the exhibits in the galleries, to chess enthusiasts at Maggie Walker square, and chilled-out studio gatherings against a backdrop of vibrant street art, it was a fun night. Take a moment to enjoy these snapshots and see you out there next weekend.

Capturing the vibrant soul of RVA through my lens as I bridge the gap between social anxiety and artistic pleasure. Passionate about nightlife, murals, and intimate portraits, with a special focus on culture and art. With a camera in my hands I have found my place in this life helping to simultaneously create and preserve lasting memories. I believe my work reflects a unique perspective, blending vulnerability and beauty in captivating imagery.
