The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts brings a broad art collection and outdoor sculpture spaces to Richmond.

Its galleries make it a substantial cultural destination, while the museum grounds provide a way to move between concentrated indoor looking and a quieter walk outside.
Plan around the collection areas or exhibition that most interest you and check whether a special show needs a separate ticket. Expansion and renovation work currently affects some galleries, so consult the museum's latest access information. Leave time for the grounds when weather and available routes allow.
