Pat yourselves on the back, Winstonians.

Winston-Salem’s vibrant arts scene flourished in 2024, thanks to your support.

In the spirit of the season, Arts Council of Winston-Salem and Forsyth County reflects on how $1.4 million+ transformed music, arts, and culture in our community.

💸 Grant Funding

The largest chunk of the arts investment, $913,097, went toward grants supporting education programs, event sponsorships, and art organizations that foster creativity and promote cultural engagement throughout the county.

🎶 Community Engagement

$75,000 funded beloved programs like the Parks Concert Series while $123,000 of in-kind marketing support boosted visibility and community engagement for local events.

🎨 Creative Spaces

To help ensure creative spaces remain accessible and affordable, Arts Council invested $300,000 in facilities support like music venues, theaters, and spaces for educational programs.
