Regular subjects here include concert and festival announcements, theater and dance productions, gallery and museum shows, and the media outlets that cover the city's cultural scene. Coverage runs across Winston-Salem and into the surrounding communities whenever an event or venue draws audiences from beyond the city limits. Live events and performing arts shape most of the local calendar, while the business side of venues and production companies follows closely behind. Ticketing, venue financing and the economics of touring acts are the constraints that most often decide which shows reach the city.
