Virginia Museum of History & Culture

In January 1848, a carpenter spotted flecks of gold in a shallow stream at Sutter’s Mill in California—triggering the greatest voluntary migration in U.S. history and jolting a fragile republic already sliding toward crisis. In The Rush, Nathaniel Philbrick transforms the Gold Rush from a tale of sudden riches into the origin story of America’s modern contradictions: capital consolidated at dizzying speed, democracy in thrall to private power, xenophobia weaponized in the name of liberty—and a stubborn belief in the American experiment that refuses to die. This is the story of a nation tearing at the seams—a republic tested by its own ideals. From the feverish gold-mining camps of the Sierra Nevada mountains to the wharves and vigilance committees of San Francisco, Philbrick renders a combustible, all-world society. He follows the gold as it moves from riverbed to countinghouse to the halls of power, revealing how vigilantism hardened into law and how debates over slavery in the West tipped the balance in Washington. The result is a clear, human story of how a scramble for wealth reshaped ideas of freedom, labor, and belonging—and how California's rise helped push a fractured nation toward war. The Rush is alive with characters whose choices still reverberate: a searing, panoramic epic that captures both the fury and the promise of America.
Nathaniel Philbrick is the award-winning author of several bestselling books, including In the Heart of the Sea, winner of the National Book Award; Mayflower, finalist for the Pulitzer Prize; Valiant Ambition, winner of the George Washington Prize; Bunker Hill, winner of the New England Book Award; Travels with George; Sea of Glory; and The Rush: California Gold, the Civil War, and the Making of the Modern World.
A book signing and light refreshments will follow the program.

Election Analysis • Rapid Response • Grassroots Action Updates
Election Day has come and gone, and one thing is certain: our work is NOT over! We still have communities to protect, institutions to strengthen, and a future to build together.
Join us for a special Friday Power Lunch as we unpack the election results, the legal battles ahead, and how grassroots organizers are preparing for whatever comes next. Glenn Kirschner, host of Justice Matters and former federal prosecutor, joins us to talk election law, accountability, and protecting the rule of law.


 Kris Goldsmith, founder of Veterans Fighting Fascism, talks about the upcoming Veterans Day Democracy March.

 Melissa Thomas, Climate Equity Working Group Policy Director, shines a spotlight on the proposed Dominion/NextEra merger and why we can't lose sight of the issues affecting our communities.

 GRASSROOTS RAPID RESPONSE: What happens if votes aren't counted, certification is obstructed, or our communication networks go dark? We're talking about building the networks NOW so we're prepared to respond peacefully and effectively.
We're already looking ahead to Virginia 2027 and 2028! No one is coming to save us. It's up to us. RSVP to join us live at Noon: <a href="https://tinyurl.com/fpl2026b" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://tinyurl.com/fpl2026b</a>

Funny Bone Comedy Club & Restaurant

For More Information, Visit richmond.funnybone.com
About the Artist: To those in the know Arnez J. one of the hottest, most talked about comedic artists in the game. His raw energy, talent and comedic skill quickly landed Arnez the coveted hosting slot on BET’s longest-running comedy series “Comic View” for two seasons joining the ranks of hosts such as D.L. Hughley and Cedric the Entertainer. His hilarious new comedy special “Racially Motivated” is now available on Netflix. Arnez J.’s charisma and physical agility are unforgettable. “J is a whirling dervish on stage–he runs, jumps, spins, slides, slips, and mugs through a performance, acting out many of his bits while describing them,” wrote Doug Kaufman in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. On his own at age 14, Arnez lied about his age to get a job at a gas station to work his way through school. With dreams to become a professional baseball player, Arnez began working as a flight attendant when those baseball plans fell through. It was while working as a flight attendant that Arnez discovered his comedic talent. He realized that he had the ability to keep the passengers and crew laughing and, upon encouragement from friends, he made his first attempt at stand-up comedy. After that first night on stage, he knew what he wanted to do. He left his job with the airlines and made the decision to devote all of his time to a career in comedy. Arnez got a chance to combine his ambitions as both an athlete and performer when he was recruited by scouts for the famed Harlem Globetrotters basketball team who saw his very physical comedy routine at a local basketball game. However, after several months, a knee injury ended his Globetrotters career, finally clearing the way for him to devote himself full time to standup comedy. Arnez began working the comedy circuit in Georgia and quickly became one of “Hotlanta’s” funniest newcomers. A finalist in the “Bay Area Black Comedy Competition,” he made his first TV appearance on Showtime’s “Comedy Club Network.” Numerous TV appearances soon followed including appearances on “The Keenan Ivory Wayans Show,” “Louie Anderson’s Comedy Showcase,” Comedy Central’s “Make Me Laugh,” NBC’s “Friday Night Videos,” “The Mo’Nique Show”, Russell Simmons’ “Def Comedy Jam,” his own BET “Comic View Grandstand Hour Special,” and “Comedy Central Presents: Arnez J.” He was most recently seen headlining Showtime’s “Shaquille O’Neal Presents: All Star Comedy Jam.” Today, Arnez is widely considered one of the best working artists, with a polished and highly entertaining standup routine that keeps his audiences entertained.

The LEGO Group’s new LEGO® Holiday Workshop is coming to cities across the U.S. this holiday season, with Richmond, VA, as the first stop. This interactive experience is designed to inspire builders to gift the love of bricks and spark inspiration for building and gift giving. 
LEGO Yeti is coming to town to spread holiday cheer so he is welcoming builders of all ages inside to get creative and build their own holiday magic. He will be joined by a crew of merry LEGO Minifigures, each with their own unique styles and interests. Together, they keep the workshop buzzing with inspiration and jolly good fun. 
Guests will explore seven festive areas, guided by the merry crew of holiday magic-makers:  
<ul><li>Little Big Ideas Department (LEGO Snowman): Our youngest builders follow their curiosity, try things their own way and discover where a simple idea can lead. An activity zone lets preschool-aged kids build their own creations and explore LEGO DUPLO® sets on display to inspire their creativity.&nbsp; </li></ul>
<ul><li>Merry Motorworks (LEGO Gingerbread Woman): Vehicles are dreamed up, built and tested against the workshop’s toughest standards until they’re ready to become someone’s next favorite gift. Families can build at the tables, send their creations down the race ramp and admire the best-in-class cars on display. </li></ul>
<ul><li>Level Up Lab (LEGO Gingerbread Man): Worlds take shape, characters come to life, and games are programmed, played and tested before they level up from the workshop to screens around the world in this arcade area. Guests can play LEGO Party!, which features a variety of mini games for non-stop fun.&nbsp; </li></ul>
<ul><li>Story Studio (LEGO Elves): This is where the workshop dreams up what happens next, mixing characters, settings and plot twists into stories worth telling, and giving. Kids and adults can create an original hero story Mad Lib-style, then feed their sheet into the Plot Mixer to reveal the finished tale. </li></ul>
<ul><li>Creature Conservatory (LEGO Reindeer): Creatures take shape in LEGO brick form from legendary beasts and wild animals to beloved pets. Here, guests can create a mini LEGO reindeer make-and-take to remember their visit. </li></ul>
<ul><li>Memory Makers (LEGO Yeti): Friends and families come together to celebrate and capture the moments, laughs and people that make the season special, with a photo opportunity to commemorate the day. </li></ul>
<ul><li>The Giving Engine: This community tree powers the LEGO Holiday Workshop through kindness and gifting. Guests can build a LEGO ornament to add to the tree, then share a photo with #BuildtoGive, and the LEGO Group will donate a LEGO set to a child in need of play for every post. </li></ul>
Guests will receive an All-Access Holiday Magic pass to guide them through the workshop’s departments and keep track of the LEGO sets they’d love to add to their holiday wish list. When the experience is complete, they can enter the “Win Your Wishlist” sweepstakes. WHEN:November 7, 11 a.m. - 7 p.m.
