Every December, the Children’s Museum of Richmond invites 100 families in need from local community organizations to “Supper with Legendary Santa,” an annual tradition supported by partners like M&T Bank.

Guests enjoy a merry evening filled with free museum access, photos with Santa, books for each child, “Fawn Shop” bucks for holiday shopping, and a delicious holiday feast.

Psst.. When you support the museum’s Family Engagement programs, you help keep this beloved tradition alive.
