In the Heart of the Arts
Located on the corner of 6th and Trade streets in the Arts District of Winston-Salem, Artworks Gallery is a convenient destination for Art and Inspiration.
Neatly situated among a variety of artist’s studios, galleries, shops, retail businesses, restaurants, bars, and residences in this eclectic area of Downtown Winston-Salem, North Carolina–you’ll find plenty to do nearby when you visit. After you’ve visited our gallery, you’ll want to also stroll through the Art Park, nibble on some artisanal chocolate, or do a little window-shopping in our own gallery shop.
