FALL & WINTER
From chessboards to circuit boards, we open space to discover, learn, and play.
As the leaves turn and the air gets crisp, Discovery Center at Stony Point™ transforms into Richmond’s hub for cozy connection, bold discovery, and unforgettable experiences. Fall and Winter bring more than a change in season—they bring a fresh rhythm of programs, leagues, and celebrations designed for every age and stage.
