What's On

There's never a dull moment in Richmond...

There’s always something to do and somewhere to go in Richmond. With the unique Georgian Theatre Royal plus the award-winning independent cinema at The Station, drama and cinema are well taken care of, and then there’s the sparkling events programme at the Green Howards Museum, as well as Richmond Castle and the Richmondshire Museum.

The town’s many choirs and two orchestras offer up regular concerts, alongside the Richmondshire Concert Series in Spring and Autumn bringing in world-class chamber ensembles, while there’s plenty of live music at The Comrades Club and at many of the town’s great pubs. Richmond’s festivals are amazingly diverse, from the lively performance scene at MayFest to the delights of both “books and boots” at September’s Walking and Book Festival - never mind the epic Duck Race on the Swale.

Craft markets, health and wellbeing events, every kind of community group you can think of, talks, walks… you’ll always find something to enjoy.

Painting the Mountains, Moors, Dales and Coastlines of the North - Michael Lumb

Venue: The Station

News Editor

What's On, February

26

The exhibition is a selection of recent work which looks at the landscapes of the Pennines, Lake District and coastlines of Durham and North YorkshireMichael is an oil painter from Co Durham and most of his work is inspired by the landscapes close to home, the North Pennines, Yorkshire Dales and Moors, Cumbria and the Coast. These are places he has walked in and grown up around so painting them feels natural to him. The sudden changing light and atmosphere and weather can make these places seem completely different from one day to the next. Painting every piece of detail is not important to him, his work is more about capturing the atmosphere - the mood, the memory and feeling of being there.

Friday 27th February 2026 for 12 Days

9am - 8pm (7pm Sundays)
