A quiet month (on the surface)

Let's be frank - January can be a pretty quiet month. Yes, there are still some indoor meetings and classes going on: a bookbinding workshop; a repair cafe; a number of quizzes; a wine tasting... And of course there are plenty of good films on at the three-screen Station Cinema. And the Castle is open at weekends - except when it isn't, because of thick ice on the paths. But there's no getting away from it: things are quiet. On the surface, anyway. ***

Below the surface, though... Well, you know what they say about a duck. All our major local attractions - Richmond Castle, the Georgian Theatre Royal, the Richmondshire Museum, the Green Howards Museum, Kiplin Hall and The Station - are gearing up for their 2025 re-opening, with new special exhibitions and displays and events and improved facilities and more. No details yet, but their websites will keep you posted. Their 2025 leaflets are in preparation, and we'll have those leaflets in the Information Centre just as soon as they come out. Watch this space.

*** Meanwhile, would you like to know about those quizzes, or the bookbinding, or the films? Pick up a copy of Richmond What's On from most Richmond shops, or visit richmondinfo.net/whatson.
