In 1966, an artist parishioner of the First Unitarian Universalist Church of Richmond, Virginia, held the belief that art should be accessible to everyone, to view and to own. The Gallery at First UU was born, with 22 artists showing and selling their works. Over the history of the Gallery, more than 150 artists are participating, offering pottery, oils, mixed media, watercolor, furniture, sculpture, fiber arts, jewelry, stained glass, and more! It is a year-round effort to draw people in, we work with juried artists through volunteer efforts to mold and sculpt creative connections in the larger community.

Gallery at First UU dates are

October 22 to October 26, 2025

This will be the 58th year of our much-loved juried fine arts and crafts show.

The mission of Gallery is to:

Promote the arts and support the local arts community

Connect our church members through diverse volunteer opportunities

Provide a venue for non-members to get to know us

Contribute to our collective spiritual wealth and development through art

Enrich the church culturally and financially
