Arts for Arts Sake revitalizes downtown

About two years ago, hidden by the darkness of night, two people set out on an expedition to hang wind chimes from the street lamps on Trade Street.

Harry Knabb and Guy Blynn initially assembled this project in secret due to their uncertainty of the reaction from business owners on Trade Street in downtown Winston-Salem.

Now, the wind chimes remain hanging from the street lamps, associated with many more compliments than complaints.

Knabb and Blynn’s wind chimes is one istallation of many completed through Arts for Arts Sake, a nonprofit organization with the intention of enhancing and educating the community through art, according to their website.
