Our daughter Ana is part of the current cycle of the James River Leadership Expedition through @jravirginia. She’s really enjoyed her time in the program, especially on their 5 day wilderness adventure. She’s connected with a bunch of new friends, honed her leadership skills and has developed a deeper appreciation for our beloved James River. If you have a 9-12th grader who may be interested in the program, scan the QR code at the bottom of the photo and apply.

Since their 2000 formation in Kalamazoo, MI, the quintet—Anders Beck [dobro], Michael Arlen Bont [banjo], Dave Bruzza [guitar], Mike Devol [upright bass], and Paul Hoffman [mandolin]—have unassumingly progressed into a phenomenon on their own terms with the undying support of a devout audience. Rolling back and forth across North America on successive tours, they recently sold out 3 nights at Red Rocks, a feat unheard of in their genre. During 2019, All For Money marked their second #1 debut on the Billboard Top Bluegrass Albums Chart and third straight Top 3 entry. They’ve also earned critical acclaim from Billboard, Parade, NPR, and Rolling Stone who hailed them as “representing the genre for a whole new generation.” @greenskybluegrass Come see them at JamPacked on August 10th!

Hailing from all corners of the country, @kindheartedstrangers began in the foothills of Colorado - where an impromptu open mic performance quickly evolved into a dynamic touring band capable of bridging the gap between all out rock n’ roll and their harmony-driven roots. Since the release of the debut record “East // West” in 2021, the band has grown into a road-driven force, hungry for live music, delivering high-energy rock shows across the country. Released April 7th, 2023 - the band’s 2nd LP entitled “Now.here” features a collaboration with visual artist/painter Dylan Lynch. This immersive project found the band working in a shared Richmond, VA warehouse space for 5 days. With no prepared material, the artists intentionally put pressure on themselves to create and deliver a Live Concert & Art Exhibition at the end of the week. The resulting album contains brand new material that was recorded live with the same raw energy and passion KHS has been delivering across the country during their busiest year of touring to date.

Nashville’s psychedelic punk-grass rockers, @sicardhollowband grew up sick of any existing institution telling them who and what to be. Now, as they navigate adulthood, they’re equally tired of the music institutions telling them what their music should sound like— so they dunked it in patchouli and a skate-and-destroy ethos that brings an enduring sound into the modern age.

Half of our 4th grade students visited the James River Association yesterday (the other half is going tomorrow)! There were 3 stations about wetlands, Atlantic Sturgeon fish, and resources used by Powhatan people. We made a wetland in a bottle to filter water, played a game pretending to be sturgeon traveling to the Fall Line of the James River, and carved arrowheads out of potatoes. What a great experience! ☺️ #webelievebearsachieve #jamesriver #jamesriverassociation #fieldtrip
In Dante’s Inferno, the author grapples with sin, its various manifestations, and its consequences. This time ultimately traces a trajectory of self-realization, acceptance, and accountability. @kitchendwellers embark on a similar odyssey over the course of their fourth full-length offering, Seven Devils. The Montana quartet—Shawn Swain [Mandolin], Torrin Daniels [Banjo], Joe Funk [Upright Bass], and Max Davies [Acoustic Guitar]—thread together an immersive and inimitable conceptual arc inspired by Dante’s Inferno and set to a soundtrack of folk-infused bluegrass spiked with psychedelic vision and rock energy. Continuing their own journey as brothers, they deliver their most ambitious and anthemic body of work yet. “These tunes deal with the human experience, and Torrin initially drew a parallel between the music and Dante,” Max states. “We explored the connection by correlating each song with a sin. Some of these connections are only apparent if you dive deep into the lyrics. Our goal is to essentially take the listener through our own interpretation of the Inferno story.” Come see them at JamPacked on August 10th!

With 5000 people, an event like the JamPacked Craft Beer & Music Festival could generate a lot of waste that would find its way to the landfill. But we proactively manage JamPacked to minimize landfill waste and recycle as much as we possibly can. That’s why we offer beer in cans that can be recycled. It’s also why we ask our food vendors to use recyclable packaging as much as possible and we offer recyclable aluminum cups for our water stations. It feels good to enjoy live music, drink a cold beer and know that you’re doing right by the planet! ♻️ Tickets for JamPacked 2024 go on sale tomorrow, February 16 at 10 am on www.JamPackedFest.com. 🎸🥁🎤 #keepvirginiabeautiful #thingstodoinrva #richmond #craftbeer #virginialiving #richmondliving #rvabeer #rvamusic #brownsisland #ilovejambands #rvanews #richmondgrid #jampackedfest #JamesRiverAssociation #seeyouontheisland #StoneBrewingRichmond

Had a great Friday morning attending the @jravirginia Riparian Buffer Workshop. Many landowners in the James River watershed have partnered with the James River Association to reduce invasive species, and plant native trees and shrubs in riparian areas. It was great to connect with everyone, and do our part to take care of one of Virginia’s most important watersheds! I was able to keep the day productive, and set a couple radon monitors in the afternoon 😁 #jamesriverassociation #planttrees🌱 #stewardoftheland #naturalresourcemanagement
The @Jravirginia James River Association hosts many volunteer opportunities in the Metro Richmond area, and we are always happy to lend a hand. This opportunity led us to the East End Branch Library where hundreds of plants are being planted around the library to improve stormwater runoff and to increase shaded areas in one of the East End’s hottest areas. Stormwater runoff can carry pollutants that flow into our rivers and waterways. These plants will intercept the stormwater runoff, reducing pollution flowing into the James River. #volunteer #communityinvolvement #jamesriverassociation #sustainability
Beautiful day to celebrate ROB’S BIRTHDAY, and take a James River sturgeon-spotting excursion with @jravirginia . We saw two male sturgeon “breaching” i.e., leaping from the water, along with assorted egrets, heron and bald eagles during our little boat ride. Atlantic Sturgeon are an endangered species, survivors from the age of dinosaurs, and as an anadromous fish (Google it) return to the James River in summer/fall to spawn. They live up to 60 years, reach 15 feet long and can weigh 800 pounds. #jamesriverassociation #sturgeon #jamesriver #richmondva #rva #rivercruise

🛶 𝗪𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐭 𝐑𝐕𝐀 🛶 The coolest way to explore the James River! We absolutely loved this impromptu adventure on stand up paddle boards! 🏄🏽♀️The boards are 3 feet wide and super stable. They place a seat on them for the adults to sit and paddle and kiddos can sit, stand, or lay anywhere on the board 🎽They provide the life jackets. The smallest size available is for 30-50lbs. You can also bring your own 💧Up to 3 kiddos and one adult can fit on one board! 🗺️ They tell you where you can paddle and which spots are off limits. You can also paddle over to Belle Isle and stop on the bank to further explore 🏙️ The most beautiful view from the river of the downtown Richmond skyline 👧🏼🧒🏼 E (4.5) and W (2.5) loved this and were entertained for the entire hour. I’d recommend this for even younger kiddos, as long as they can follow directions to stay on the board 📍 415 Tredegar Street, Richmond 💰 $25/person, $10/kiddo for 1 hour ⏰ 12-6pm daily from May to October @waterfrontrva #rva #jamesriverassociation @jravirginia @therichmondexperience #richmond #jamesriver #virginia #virginiaisforlovers #rvaoutside #rfm #sup #rvamoms #rvatots #rvakids #virginia

The Helios 3D casts effortlessly. Whether you’re in a river or still water the Helios will chuck whatever you can give it. The lightness and balance of the rod is amazing Henry - Today I was throwing streamers in the falls of the James and crushing fish.

Let’s celebrate American Wetlands Month! If you’re local to the Central VA area, the James River Association is hosting rain barrel workshops! This is a great way to capture and use your own rainwater, reduce storm water runoff and learn how to build your own barrel! They provide the barrels and kit for easy assembly. We took their workshop a few years ago and have enjoyed and used our rain barrels ever since.

🦅 Happy World Wildlife Day! 🐟 It's a great day to celebrate the Atlantic Sturgeon in our local Virginia rivers! ❤️ The Atlantic Sturgeon, once thought to be gone from Virginia’s rivers, has returned after decades of dedicated work to restore water quality and habitat. Local organizations such as VCU Rice River Center of Charles City, Virginia and James River Association have worked hard to get the public engaged with the sturgeon’s plight. With their great outreach and education, people became excited and engaged in the support of the endangered sturgeon's recovery. Sturgeons are the largest fish native to the Chesapeake Bay. Adult sturgeons are usually 5-6 feet in length but can grow to 14 feet. They weigh between 90-160 lbs and live up to 60 years. Atlantic Stugeons were once found throughout the Bay and it's rivers.

Artspace's 2022 Member Biennial, Watershed, is in full swing at their beautiful gallery and it is mesmerizing! JRA staff were able to take in the exhibit over the weekend and we were blown away by the many creative and powerful representations of the James River. We highly encourage you to check out the show before it closes on December 17, including our partner exhibit, Where Art and the River Converge, opening TODAY!
