About

Manchester Manifest continues to creatively connect dots in the Southside of Richmond, VA. If you've heard of First Fridays across the water, then you know about us. If you haven't had a chance to rock out with us, then check out our IG after you keep scrolling. With our satellite events, we have set out to drop more anchors in the Manchester/Blackwell areas of Richmond. We have partnered with Basic City Beer Co. to establish a monthly residency event (every last Saturday) catered to the diverse cultures of the city. We are excited to present a dope selection of showcases intentionally curated to immerse attendees in the culture while expanding on the creative ecosystem.

Basically...

We're about to set it out all over Southside!

Join us for our first showcase:

Countdown

“

A lot of times, when people say Hip-Hop, they don't know what they're talking about. They just think of the rappers. When you talk about hip-hop, you're talking about the whole culture and movement. You have to take the whole culture for what it is.
