How the Arts can help to revitalise Richmond - join the discussion

The demise of the high street that began with online shopping has only hastened as one shop after another found it impossible to survive lockdown.

What can be done to make Richmond's town centre a vibrant community once more?

The Richmond Society believes the Arts have a role to play, even though the cultural sector itself has suffered catastrophically from the consequences of the pandemic. It has organised a forum to discuss how the Arts can help to revitalise Richmond.

Richmond author, presenter and lecturer Anne Sebba will chair a panel composed of:

  • Ann Chapman-Daniel, Chair, Richmond Business District representing 350 firms
  • Dr Hilary Dodman, Chair, Arts Richmond which represents more than 140 affiliated organisations throughout the borough
  • Cllr John Coombs, Richmond Council's spokesperson for the Arts and Culture
  • Paul Miller, Artistic Director, Orange Tree Theatre.

The forum will take place on Thursday (October 15) at 7.30pm via Zoom video conference.
