Organised by Arts Richmond, the event is an opportunity to visit all manner of creative spaces right on your doorstep – there are 15 stops just in Teddington and the Hamptons – usually hidden away from prying eyes.

Guides are available from any Richmond Library, the Visit Richmond stand at Richmond Station, or from this link, so get one quick and start planning your route!

Venues will be open 11am to 5pm. Once in the area, visitors are encouraged to 'continue your adventure on foot or by bus, boat, or bike'.
