The Staten Island Culture Crawl is reserved for non-profit organizations in arts, culture, and social service. These organizations are invited to share their missions and works with the many thousand attendees of Historic Richmond Town’s largest fundraiser and New York City’s original county fair.

The Staten Island Culture Crawl is located immediately beyond the Fair’s main entrance gate located at the corner of Richmond Road and St. Patrick’s Place. We look forward to showcasing organizations that make up the cultural fabric of Staten Island.

Because the Richmond County Fair is Historic Richmond Town’s annual fundraiser, participating organizations will not be permitted to conduct their own fundraising efforts during the event. Thank you for your cooperation.
