NC House bill would provide UNCSA $4.5 million to purchase downtown Winston-Salem building
A North Carolina House bill filed last week would provide funding for the University of North Carolina School of the Arts to purchase a downtown Winston-Salem building next to the Stevens Center, which is being renovated.
Rep. Kyle Hall, R-Stokes, filed House Bill 419, which would provide $4.5 million dollars to the school's board of trustees to purchase and improve the property located at 411 W. 4th St. in Winston-Salem. If the bill is passed into law, it would go into effect on July 1 and the funds would likely be inserted into the state's 2025-2026 budget bill.
The 12,441-square-foot property is adjacent to the Stevens Center and was previously the headquarters of Greater Winston-Salem Inc. before the organization moved into a new office in Innovation 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
