Winston-Salem was one of 18 cities across the nation to participate in Arts For EveryBody to demonstrate how arts can lead to healthier people and communities.
The Arts for EveryBody initiative in Winston-Salem, NC, consists of five key organizations: Arts Council of Winston-Salem & Forsyth County, the Kenan Institute for the Arts at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, United Health Centers, City of Winston-Salem Neighborhood Services, and the Forsyth County Department of Behavioral Health Services.
Three neighborhoods were selected for this project: Happy Hill, Boston Thurmond, and Cleveland Avenue. The initiative centers on arts and mental wellbeing, with events in these communities leading up to the main event, Creative Wellness Community Day, held on July 27, 2024.
The emphasis on mental wellbeing stems from the challenges these neighborhoods have faced, including limited access to physical and behavioral health providers and incidents of gun violence in recent years. Creative Wellness Community Day highlighted artists from diverse disciplines to foster healing and inspire hope.

NEA's FY2027 Partnership Agreement Grants (2027NEA04PA) put $59 million into 56 state arts agencies with a September 29, 2026 deadline. No individual arts nonprofit can apply. But this is the channel through which most NEA dollars actually reach small organizations — and the supplanting rule and 1-to-1 state cost share determine how much reaches yours.
Read articleOn August 26, 2026, the NEA, NEH and IMLS jointly rescinded the disparate-impact provisions of 45 CFR Part 1110.
