From restaurants, coffee shops, and local boutiques to the murals that line our buildings, very few brands capture the energy of our hometown like The Richmond Experience. What began as a simple local guide and social media profile has evolved into one of the city’s most trusted local platforms — part media outlet, part community, and completely devoted to the many people who make Richmond what it is.

Today, we’re joined by the amazing women now leading that charge: Paige Poprocky and Kelsey Heintz. Together, they’ve turned a love for this city into a thriving, independently owned media brand that celebrates local stories, small businesses, and the societal pulse that defines Richmond.
