ART CRUSH
Presented by the Arts District of Winston-Salem, ART CRUSH is a recurring block party where you can discover emerging and established artists, admire creative studios and galleries, support local businesses, and experience the electric energy of the local music scene. The Arts District’s mission is to connect with and amplify diverse voices and visions, bringing them together at the heart of the city. Through arts-centric events, local partnerships, and passionate community building, the organization lifts the local artistic community and reinforces Winston-Salem as “The City of Arts and Innovation.”
FIELD TRIPS
Field Trips are community art excursions to local, arts-based organizations and institutions for an inside look at spaces that are shaping the cultural landscape in the North Carolina triad. The monthly meet-ups are led by NCMA Winston-Salem staff and may include collaborative art-making, movement or sound explorations, guided tours, or creative prompts. Like the field trips of our childhoods, they combine fun and learning, all while showcasing unique, local entities that are rooted in the arts.
