LOCAL TALK

Word on the Street

We asked six locals - ones with their finger on the pulse of all things
Winston-Salem - what to do and where to be throughout the year.
Here are their recommendations, season by season.

YEAR-ROUND FRESH AIR Clockwise from left: Street festivals are common throughout the spring and summer; ARTivity on the
Green, an urban green space and public art installation where performances often take place; the Strollway greenway begins downtown and becomes a tree-lined, curb-free path perfect for biking and walking.

F

lowers blossom and the community
begins to shake off cabin fever.

"There are outdoor parties at ARTivity
on the Green with music, dancing, and
live painting in the new-to-town space."
-Laura Lashley, muralist
"I never miss RiverRun International
Film Festival (March 30-April 9)."
-Richard Emmett, program director
at The Blue Ridge Music Center
"The Moravian Easter Sunrise Service

cemetery seem to burst with color."
-Martha Hartley, director of research and
outreach at Old Salem Museums & Gardens
"Every Saturday from April to
November, there's the Cobblestone
Farmers Market in Old Salem. The
people who sell at this market are the
ones who actually grew or made the food.
It's a social event, with coffee and pastries
and an abundance of fresh, local
produce." -Martha Hartley

CELEBRATORY SUMMER

T

he sounds of summer are a medley
of local music, the hum of the arts,
and the ding of a baseball bat.
"The National Black Theatre Festival
happens during the summer on odd years
and returns July 2017. The city comes alive
and there's a whole new energy downtown. It's like being in New York City with
theatre and people everywhere. People go
in and out of hotels for workshops and
attend our many stage performances."
-Sylvia Sprinkle-Hamlin, president of the
N.C. Black Repertory Company
