HISTORY

Six historic properties tell the story of Winston Salem’s rich heritage — and treat guests to much-deserved R&R.

Graylyn Estate Make reservations for a romantic dinner or stay overnight at Graylyn Estate, a historic mansion and designated Historic Hotel of America. Completed in 1932, this grand property on the “Reynolda Mile” — now an 85-room hotel and international conference center — transports its guests to the French countryside. Old World charm and innovative amenities include a 15th-century French carved doorway, hand-painted tile, and rare Louis XV paneling — alongside luxury bathrooms with solid marble tubs, heated towel racks, and 17 showerheads. graylyn.com

Historic Brookstown Inn A half mile from Old Salem Museums & Gardens and four blocks south of Downtown Winston-Salem, what is now the Brookstown Inn was originally one of the first cotton textile mills in the South to have electric lighting — jump-starting the Industrial Revolution in the Piedmont. Each of the inn’s 70 rooms and suites features original floor-to-ceiling windows, plush linens, and modern amenities. Appearances by Sally Cat, the inn’s resident pet, make this stay unique, as does the nightly wine and cheese reception and milk and cookies. brookstowninn.com Hotel Indigo In Winston-Salem’s historic 1928 Pepper Building, the Indigo gives a sense of the Roaring '20s wealth and opulence. Design elements include smooth terra-cotta, variegated brown and sandstone brickwork, and brick pilasters. Situated just a stone’s throw from the Downtown Arts District, the hotel is full of local artwork, including an Art-o-mat machine. ihg.com/hotelindigo The Kimpton Cardinal Hotel Ask any local, and they’ll tell you about The Kimpton Cardinal Hotel’s claim to fame: It’s housed in the historic R.J. Reynolds building, which just so happens to have inspired the creation of New York City’s Empire State Building. Today’s hotel guests experience that art-deco glamour as they walk through the lobby’s grand front doors. Look up to admire the mahogany ceiling’s original gold tobacco leaf details, and down to marvel at marble tiles that replicate the original terrazzo and marble design. thecardinalhotel.com

They traveled on foot — without trains or carriages, without hiking paths or friendly taverns. The weary travelers were often denied shelter, set upon by dogs, and cursed at. But they persisted, and six years later helped found a sanctuary for learning in a Winston-Salem community of Moravian settlers who believed that girls and women deserved a formal education. Since then, thousands of female leaders have passed through the spacious halls and grassy dells of Salem Academy and College, the oldest continuously operating educational institution for girls and women in the United States. “At that time, education for women was considered unnecessary,” says Katherine Knapp Watts, vice president for strategic initiatives and chair of Salem College’s 250th

celebration committee. “It was a revolutionary idea before the Revolutionary War.”

This year, as the school celebrates its milestone anniversary with a year of music, dance, theater, seminars, and art exhibitions, it’s a good time to talk about the importance of women entrepreneurs — not just at Salem, but throughout the city. “Entrepreneurs have been so integral in the history and future of Winston-Salem,” says Marcheta Cole Keefer, director of marketing and communications for Visit Winston-Salem. “There’s a strong spirit of women waymakers that’s an important part of Winston-Salem’s DNA. That’s why we created the Women Waymakers Trail, where visitors and locals alike can follow an enriching path around the city, learning about the influential women that left their mark — and those that carry the torch today.” In the height of the Roaring ʻ20s, Katharine Reynolds, wife of tobacco magnate R.J. Reynolds worked to improve conditions for Reynolds' factory workers, and to relieve unhealthy living and working conditions for the poor, especially women and children.

The mother of five, Reynolds was ahead of her time, eventually owning 1,067 acres. Through the generations, her Reynolda home became Reynolda House Museum of American Art in 1967, its reputation for excellence increasing with the years. Today, visitors to Reynolda can explore the public gardens that Katharine commissioned or spend a nominal fee to explore the private art collection of Katharine’s granddaughter, Barbara Babcock Millhouse, displayed on the walls of the house-turned-museum. One of Winston-Salem’s most beloved citizens, Dr. Maya Angelou became the first Reynolds Professor of American Studies at Wake Forest University in 1982. Calling herself “a teacher who writes,” the author of 36 books exhorted her students to take positions on issues and not be “fence-sitters.” Angelou’s inspiring message is alive and well at The Maya Angelou Center for Health Equity, created by the WFU School of Medicine in 2002 to study racial and ethnic disparities in health care and health outcomes.

Today, a plethora of women-owned restaurants and executive chefs have taken the area’s renowned culinary scene to new heights. Like the former lawyer and mother of three owning a handful of popular restaurants, and the seventhgeneration Moravian still hand-rolling and cutting every delicious wafer-thin cookie — a favorite of Oprah Winfrey — these visionary women leaders are taking Winston-Salem’s culinary community by storm. “From James Beard nominee Chef Stephanie Tyson and co-owner/partner Vivian Joiner at Sweet Potatoes embarking on their culinary journey as the first restaurant in our Downtown Arts District to the mother-daughter duo at Forsyth Seafood Market & Café, many brave women entrepreneurs can be credited with putting our bold culinary scene on the map,” Cole Keefer says. “What’s more extraordinary is how they’re paving the way for future women waymakers to come.” To learn more about the Women Waymakers Trail, visit visitwinstonsalem.com/women-waymakers.

DEWEY’S BAKERY

Named for founder Dewey Guy Wilkerson, Dewey’s Bakery has been turning out Moravian sugar cakes since 1930. Today, Dewey’s bakes their cakes with yeast-raised dough, cinnamon, butter, cane sugar, and molasses. With two locations in Winston-Salem, Dewey’s also ships its cakes around the country for a sweet treat ready to heat up back at home. deweys.com

WILKERSON MORAVIAN BAKERY

hen German Protestants of the Moravian church immigrated to the United States in the 1700s, they brought with them many traditions. But none as sweet as the Moravian sugar cake. Made with traditional components like yeast dough, sugar, cinnamon, and butter, these special cakes offer one special ingredient: potatoes. Moravians discovered that adding potatoes helped yeast rise faster, while also producing a softer, more delicate and moist cake. With a unique Moravian living history village nearby at Old Salem Museums & Gardens, Moravian sugar cakes are a hallmark of Winston-Salem, enjoyed during the holidays and year-round. The time-honored tradition is carried on at several bakeries around town. Grab a fresh square right out of the oven, and savor the local flavor of WinstonSalem.

WINKLER BAKERY

See — and taste — Old Salem as it used to be at Winkler Bakery, founded in 1807. The Moravian Church built the original bakery in 1799, before Christian Winkler bought the business in 1807. Today, the bakery is part of Old Salem Museums & Gardens and is the ideal start to any day of sightseeing. Winkler Bakery’s wood-fired oven is as authentic as it was 200 years ago, and employees wear traditional period clothing to offer a truly unique experience. oldsalem.org/winkler

Last year, the great-grandchildren of Dewey Guy Wilkerson opened Wilkerson Moravian Bakery as a tribute to their family. The fourth generation of bakers uses the original Wilkerson recipe from 1925, when baker Dewey Guy Wilkerson perfected his family’s recipe and built a brick oven by hand during the Great Depression. His methods helped popularize Moravian cakes and cookies beyond Winston-Salem’s church circles.

“TAKING A BITE OF WARM SUGAR CAKE TASTES LIKE HOME. IT BRINGS ME BACK TO CHRISTMAS MORNINGS OF MY CHILDHOOD.” “My great-grandfather grew up in the Moravian church, and baking was a big part of his family,” says Chelsi Ross Wilkerson, president of Wilkerson Moravian Bakery. “Taking a bite of warm sugar cake tastes like home. It brings me back to Christmas mornings of my childhood.” After allowing the dough to rise overnight, they knead it by hand before adding butter, honey, brown sugar, and cinnamon. moravianbakeshop.com

CRAFT DRAFT CRAWL Jamie Bartholomaus laughs thinking back to the days when few folks understood that a beer didn’t have to be watered-down or served ice-cold. “Back then, you had to sell people on the idea of craft beer,” says Bartholomaus, who opened Foothills, the city’s first craft brewery, in 2005. Today, downtown’s craft brewery scene is hoppy and hopping, with a combination of 10 taprooms, bars, and pubs selling their own brews — all within an easy mileand-a-half walk. By : L i sa S h u

A dimly lit yet cozy bar located at the corner of the Downtown Marriott, Benton Convention Center, and Embassy Suites, Small Batch skews more toward the younger crowd and doubles as a soccer bar, where fans of England’s Liverpool football club gather to watch matches. Popular beers include the Queen Cersei blonde ale, a nod to everyone’s favorite “Game of Thrones” villain. smallbatchws.com

10. WISE MAN BREWING

An anchor in downtown’s Industry Hill neighborhood, Wise Man opened in 2017 in a 1929 warehouse and quickly became a draw for families, young professionals, and dog owners. There’s plenty of room to gather indoors or out to play games, hear live music, and grab nibbles from one of their rotating food trucks. Favorite beers include Scoop Doog Cream Ale, Body Electric Double IPA, and Mountain Calling IPA. wisemanbrewing.com

aged to perfection One bite of the fried chicken sandwich at Bossy Beulah’s Chicken Shack takes Jim Noble back to the Sunday lunches of his childhood in Iredell County. “Just like at her parents’ house — my Grandma and Grandpa Stroud — there were always two things on Aunt Beaut’s table,” he says. “Fried chicken and ham biscuits.” What Noble bills as “the best chicken sandwich in North Carolina — because Aunt Beaut says it’s OK to be bossy as long as you’re right!” comes with Joyce Farms chicken, pickles, Duke’s mayo, and a Copain bun. Bossy Beulah’s does it just like Noble’s aunt: chicken soaked in salt water the night before, then dipped in buttermilk, dredged in flour, and fried to perfection. When it opened in 2021, Bossy Beulah’s West 1st Street location joined Noble’s restaurant collection as the eighth in North Carolina and the second in Winston-Salem. “I love Winston,” Noble says. “It’s an artistic town with a rich heritage; it’s a beautiful place, and the people are great.” It’s hard for him to believe that Rooster’s Wood-Fired Kitchen — the restaurant he opened 30 years ago on Knollwood Street — celebrated its 30th anniversary in March. At the time of its opening, there was only one other wood-fired oven in North Carolina, and Noble imported his from Italy. “There’s an art to cooking with wood; it’s the way humanity has cooked for thousands of years,” he says. “When it’s done right, the flavor is unmatched.” Known for their roasted poussin — 28-day-old chickens — Rooster’s serves local, pasture-raised Joyce Farms chicken that’s juicy, tender, and rich in flavor. Their “humble comforts” tagline extends to the sides, ranging from wood-fire-roasted beets to mac and cheese, succotash, and pommes frites. “I recently came across a photo that was taken when we were still in the planning phase of Rooster’s,” Noble says. “I was walking through the space carrying blueprints with Margaux, my daughter, who was just four years old. The fact that we’re still open today, and probably doing better than we’ve ever done, is a testament to the team we’ve had for more than three decades — and the people of Winston-Salem.” roosterskitchen.com • 336.777.8477 bossybeulahs.com • 336.606.6505 anoblegrille • bossybeulahs Opposite: Rooster’s Wood-Fired Kitchen dishes; This page, top to bottom: Bossy Beulah’s Chicken Shack chicken sandwich, Chef Jim Noble

Famous theater celebrities dine among the locals in your favorite restaurants. You’ll hear the word “marvatastic,” coined by the founder of the National Black Theatre Festival, Mr. Marvtastic himself, the late Larry Leon Hamlin. The festival, produced by the North Carolina Black Repertory Co., will convene Aug. 1-6 in downtown Winston-Salem and fan out to venues throughout city. This is the city’s largest arts event, and with 60,000 in total

This year, the festival will honor the legacy of Sylvia SprinkleHamlin, Hamlin’s widow, who passed at the beginning of 2022, by presenting the next Sylvia Sprinkle-Hamlin Rolling World Premiere Award. The winning play will receive a world premiere at NBTF and at four other theaters in the United States. Also new this year, the book On Holy Ground: Plays from the National Black Theatre Festival, a collectible produced by Theatre Communications Group in New York. It includes three full-length plays produced at NBTF, 15 monologues, and texts from notable figures who have spoken in years past. WHERE TO STAY

“The city is big enough to have all the amenities that visitors want and small enough that you can get around easily,” Alston says. “Nothing is too far away.”

attendance over the weeklong festival, the National Black Theatre Festival (NBTF) is a feast for the senses — a nonstop celebration from morning till after midnight. Programming includes a lively vendors’ market, an international colloquium, networking events, workshops, films, spoken word poetry, and about 25 productions from as many companies. Hamlin founded the N.C. Black Repertory Co. in 1979, and 10 years later, that organization produced the first event. Dr. Maya Angelou, who served as the first honorary chairperson, brought in Oprah Winfrey, Sidney Poitier, playwright August Wilson, Lou Gossett Jr., Esther Rolle, and more. As the stars stream in, so do the fans. Many of the festivalgoers are repeat visitors, coming again and again to share and celebrate Black culture.

The festival is headquartered in the Marriott Hotel WinstonSalem and the Embassy Suites, within walking distance to many of the festival’s shows. Free shuttles provide easy access to those that are elsewhere.

“THE LIFEBLOOD OF THE FESTIVAL ARE THE LOOKS ON PEOPLES FACES AND THE ENJOYMENT OF BEING TOGETHER.” Other festival-friendly hotels will have shuttles to the downtown hub Aug. 3-6 with pick-ups twice a day.

Built in 1918, Reynolda Gardens was designed by R.J. Reynolds’ wife, Katharine. Adjacent to campus and now part of Wake Forest University, the property serves as a 130-acre urban oasis with flowering gardens, a grand conservatory, walking trails, and a stunning waterfall bridge. “Katharine built the estate for health reasons during the time of the 1918 pandemic,” notes Jon Roethling, Reynolda Gardens director. “The gardens were located by the road intentionally, not behind the house like other estates, so the public could have easy access. Here we are today facing kind of the same thing, and so many people have found a retreat.” Roethling says visitors to the gardens have doubled, if not tripled, over the past 18 months. His team has enhanced the walking trails by planting natives like azaleas, dogwoods, and redbuds, and installing a 300-foot elevated boardwalk through the wetlands area with bald cypress trees and water irises. Another peaceful refuge, Quarry Park is just a 5-minute drive from downtown. When mining operations on the site stopped in the 1970s, the quarry filled with water and eventually became a 200-feet deep, 12-acre lake. Vulcan Materials Company donated the land to the city, and in 2017, the property reopened as a public park. While there are five overlooks, the highlight is

a pedestrian pier that juts out 100 feet over the blue lake, affording magnificent views of the surrounding cliffs and the city’s panoramic skyline. Paved biking and walking paths meander around the 200-acre property with an elevation gain of nearly 160 feet. Opened in 2018, Long Branch Trail meanders along 1.6 miles of downtown’s former rail corridor. The paved trail is accessible to strollers and wheelchairs and popular with cyclists. Long Branch Trail connects the city’s downtown Innovation Quarter with Salem Creek Greenway, a 5-mile paved trail running to the historic Washington Park neighborhood and Gateway Nature Preserve before ending up at Salem Lake Park. For those seeking solace, the 7-mile trail around Salem Lake offers beautiful water views and mostly-paved (yet completely smooth) paths through the forest. In addition to the sun and shade found on the walking trail, the park features a playground, marina, concession stand, grills, bait shop, and picnic areas.

With nearly 250,000 residents, Winston-Salem is a mid-sized city with distinct neighborhoods that boast their own set of charms. The common thread in all of them? They’re walkable, friendly, and vibrant. We asked neighborhood influencers to describe their pocket of the city. By : L i sa S h u

DOWNTOWN

A vivacious renaissance of textile buildings turned boutique hotels, more than 100 bars and restaurants of varying price points, and plenty of live entertainment, Central Downtown remains the heartbeat of the city. “Walkability is a big thing for me, and the fact that it’s not like other N.C. city downtowns where historic buildings are demolished. We’ve managed to keep a presence of historical downtown. With Roar, we have golf simulators, a food hall (pictured right), a rooftop bar, and outside games. And hopefully, we can encourage people to stay.” SIMON BURGESS, MANAGING DIRECTOR, MAYFAIR STREET PARTNERS NOTABLE SPOTS: Camel City Goods, Foothills Brewing, and the Milton Rhodes Center for Arts.

DOWNTOWN ARTS DISTRICT

The mural-lined streets of the Downtown Arts District cater to the creative souls who visit and work in its galleries, studios, museums, and shops.

“When I first came to this area and visited the few little shops with their offerings, I felt like I was in the Village again in Soho. It’s a wonderful area to see some unique items that you’re not going to see elsewhere in Winston-Salem.” DANA SUGGS, OWNER, BODY AND SOUL NOTABLE SPOTS: ARTivity on the Green (pictured left), Piedmont Craftsmen Gallery, and Roar.

HISTORIC BROOKSTOWN / OLD SALEM

Just a skip away from historic Old Salem Museums & Gardens, the National Historic Landmark community that Moravians settled in 1766, Historic Brookstown has several restaurants, coffee shops, and the ever-popular weekly Cobblestone Farmers Market. “We love that there’s so much history here, and it’s such a special community away from downtown with coffee shops, boutiques, and the best restaurants. On wonderful days we can take walks to Old Salem.” DARRELL AND ABBEY GARNER, OWNERS, BYGOOD COFFEE NOTABLE SPOTS: Camino Bakery, Willow’s Bistro, Old Salem Heritage Bridge (pictured right), and Winston-Salem Strollway.

INDUSTRY HILL

Formerly home to factories and warehouses, Industry Hill on the northern end of downtown is bursting with the creativity of craftsmen, entrepreneurs, brewers, and entertainers. “Industry Hill is now a place where we have nightlife. People come out for live music and food. It’s got a unique feel because the people who you encounter at the businesses are the people who built them from scratch.” ALAN SHELTON, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, MIXXER NOTABLE SPOTS: Earl’s, The Ramkat (pictured left), and WinstonSalem Junction.

INNOVATION QUARTER

With 3,600 workers in 90 companies, more than 1,000 apartments and lofts, miles of connected greenways, five academic institutions, and a multitude of eateries, Innovation Quarter has earned raves from around the world.

“Innovation Quarter has gone from this sort of ivory-tower-on-a-hill to an incredible community asset. It’s way beyond the lab space. It’s the breweries, the restaurants, the people, and connectivity. You feel the gravity of Winston-Salem shifting here. “ COLEMAN TEAM, PARTNER, FRONT STREET CAPITAL NOTABLE SPOTS: Bailey Park (pictured left), Incendiary Brewing Company, and Lill Dipper.

WEST END

“I’ve been here 16 years, and I love this neighborhood because we’re all friends, and we support each other. West End has really blossomed. You can walk everywhere — within two blocks, we have a butcher, Smoke City Meats, and pastries from Bobby Boy that taste like the ones you’d find in France. People come into our shop to get gelato and always say how nice everyone is.” CISKA WEBER, OWNER, CAFÉ GELATO NOTABLE SPOTS: Fiddle & Fig, Poppyseed Provisions, Joymongers Barrel Hall, West End Opera House, and Fourth Street Art & Frame.

25 YEARS OF SMITTY’S NOTES In 1997, Winston-Salem resident Jeff Smith started a free email newsletter to share local happenings with friends and acquaintances. Today, Smitty’s Notes is a respected source for community news and events. Smith looks back — and forward on the evolution of Smitty’s Notes and his hometown. What do you think draws people to Winston-Salem? It’s a real nice community. Visitors and newcomers see that people here are open and welcoming. There’s the Moravian influence that’s in our DNA. How do you see Winston-Salem continuing to evolve? The city is very good at innovation and collaboration. You see it with the Innovation Quarter and the forward thinking that went into the Salem Parkway and Green Street Pedestrian Bridge. Why do you think Smitty’s Notes has remained so vital in the community? There’s trust in Smitty’s Notes. When I started the newsletter, I realized that we natives can tap into our network to find out what’s going on. But newcomers don’t have that knowledge. Many people sign up for Smitty’s Notes before they even come to Winston-Salem. Subscribe to Smitty’s Notes at smittysnotes.com.

he first time Belinda Smith-Sullivan visited Winston-Salem, she felt she’d been let in on a secret.

“I was traveling all over the Southeast promoting my first cookbook and came to Winston-Salem for Bookmarks’ Annual Festival of Books and Authors,” remembers Smith-Sullivan. “I visited downtown and just fell head over heels.”

Top: Kate Blohm

Before going to culinary school and beginning her second career as a chef, Smith-Sullivan spent years with the Coca-Cola company, working in France, Kenya, and South Africa. She and her husband, Dan, eventually settled in a small South Carolina town, but it wasn’t quite the right fit. “I’m more of a big-city girl,” says Smith-Sullivan, a Chicago native. “Dan works overseas so I wanted a place where I could do things by myself, and especially be able to walk.” The couple now has an apartment in downtown Winston-Salem at the R.J. Reynolds Building. “Whenever I want to get out and do something, I just hop on the elevator,” she says.

Smith-Sullivan is a frequent visitor at Bookmarks’ nonprofit storefront as well community theater performance venues around the city. And as a chef, she’s also drawn to the city’s culinary scene.

“THIS TRULY IS THE CITY OF THE ARTS. WINSTON-SALEM IS THE BEST-KEPT SECRET IN THE SOUTH.” “Winston-Salem has some wonderful restaurants,” she says. “There are so many quaint, independently owned places — 6th and Vine, Lavender & Honey, Sweet Potatoes, Mozelle’s, Di Lisio’s — I could spend years just eating my way through them all.” Smith-Sullivan has been so inspired by her new surroundings, she’s completed two more cookbooks, Let’s Brunch and Southern Sugar. “This truly is the city of the arts,” she says. “Winston-Salem is the best-kept secret in the South.”

GETTING HERE

Travel

tips

Come explore the rich history and modern culture of Winston-Salem.

BY CAR OR RV

Winston-Salem is located in the center of the state, also known as the Piedmont Triad, between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Atlantic Ocean. About six hours from Washington, D.C., and five hours from Atlanta, it offers easy access to Interstate 40, Salem Parkway (formerly Business 40), Interstate 77, Interstate 85, and U.S. Highway 52. BY PLANE

Flying is easy with Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO), a half hour from downtown. The airport offers daily nonstop flights via major carriers, including American Airlines/American Eagle, Delta, and United. For private air service, Smith Reynolds Airport is minutes from downtown. BY TRAIN

Ride the Amtrak train to nearby High Point. Then take the shuttle 20 miles northwest to Winston-Salem and hop off at Winston-Salem State University or right in the middle of downtown at the Transportation Center. VISITOR CENTER

The Winston-Salem Visitor Center is located at 200 Brookstown Ave. and open year-round on weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Saturdays, March to December, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Call 866.728.4200 to speak with Visit Winston-Salem Visitor Specialists or email info@visitwinstonsalem.com. CREATIVE CORRIDORS

Winston-Salem is a memorable destination — and the journey to it is too. Thanks to the nonprofit Creative Corridors Coalition, pedestrian bridges and overpasses will boast architectural design reflective of the city’s culture. View the planned improvements at creativecorridors.org.
