🍿 Outdoor movies
Locals can enjoy monthly movie nights at sunset with a/perture cinema, featuring films like “Top Gun,” “Cars,” and “Back to the Future.”
Jane Fonda will star in a film adaptation of “The Correspondent,” the best-selling novel written by Winston-Salem resident Virginia Evans. Fun fact: Evans wrote the book from a clothes closet inside a local townhouse. (Winston-Salem Journal)
Pets
Butcher and Bull is throwing its first Patio Pup Party from 4 to 6 p.m. tomorrow, March 27. Swing by to meet adoptable dogs from Forsyth Humane Society while enjoying food and drink specials that benefit the local shelter.
Outdoors
Redbud trees are blooming around Winston-Salem. Did you know their pink-purple flowers are edible? They’re packed with vitamin C and antioxidants and are especially tasty on salads. Be sure to rinse before taking a bite.
Kids
Winston-Salem ranked No. 4 on a new list of the best cities for families with children, which evaluated factors such as childcare costs, health care premiums, and commute times. Kids love it here, too — explore our guide to 25+ fun, family-friendly activities around town.

No. 19. That’s where Winston-Salem ranked on the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America’s list of the worst US cities for allergies this year. The list factored in pollen scores, over-the-counter allergy medicine use, and availability of board-certified allergists and immunologists.
