Birthday Bash Update 🐾 Our 85th Birthday Bash has been postponed until further notice. While we were looking forward to celebrating this milestone with our community, our immediate focus is on caring for the animals in our shelter and ensuring our facility is safe following today's fire. We are incredibly grateful that every animal, staff member, volunteer, and visitor is safe. The outpouring of support from our community and the swift response of our first responders have reminded us just how fortunate we are. We cannot wait to celebrate 85 years of compassion, second chances, and the people who make our mission possible. We will announce a new date as soon as we are able. Thank you for your understanding, your patience, and for standing with Forsyth Humane Society when it matters most. ❤️

Culture Studio/Gallery is a thriving community of dedicated artists on the 9th floor of Liberty Plaza in downtown Winston-Salem. On a daily basis our space is active with creativity. Here are a few of our resident artists working on their art! ( @mmhierl & @deborahwillarddesign ) . Scroll for a photo of a recently opened 100sqft studio space, available now. Please reach out with any questions!
Meet Moo. 💚 She was found as a stray by my friend Cyndi, who couldn't leave her in a parking lot to fend for herself. Moo is visibly pregnant and desperately needed safety, shelter, and love. Cyndi called every rescue in our area, and every single one was full. The pet overpopulation crisis is real, and it's heartbreaking. Every day, wonderful animals end up homeless because people fail to spay and neuter their pets. Rescues everywhere are stretched beyond capacity. When Cyndi asked if we could help, I met Moo and instantly fell in love with her. So while she'll continue being fostered by Cyndi, we're bringing Moo into the Red Feather care community and will make sure she and her puppies receive everything they need. Moo has already seen a veterinarian, who confirmed that these babies could arrive any day now. Today we got a puppy cam set up and started preparing for the arrival of her little brood. Maybe it's her shape, or maybe it's because she's carrying so much potential inside that tiny body, but Moo reminds me of a little caterpillar. 🐛 And so I keep telling her that I can't wait to meet her butterflies. 🦋 For now, we're keeping her comfortable, safe, and loved while we wait for the next chapter of her story to begin. Welcome to the RF family, Moo.
Congratulations @braden_montgomery_ !
🚨 HOURS UPDATE🚨 Following today's fire, we will be closed on Wednesday, June 10th. More work is still underway at our facility to ensure the safety of our staff and animals. Today, our foster community reminded us exactly what compassion looks like. When we needed them most, they answered the call. Within minutes, foster families rearranged schedules, opened their homes, loaded up carriers, and welcomed animals with open arms, providing a safe, quiet place for them to rest while our team responds to today's shelter fire. They did not hesitate. They simply showed up. To every foster parent who dropped everything to help, every volunteer who offered a hand, and every supporter who reached out to ask what was needed: thank you. Because of this incredible community, our animals remain safe, loved, and cared for. This is what compassion in action looks like. And today, we could not be more grateful.❤️
We're open and ready for you! Come on down and have a drink with us 🍻 See ya there!

Adopt Jake! Jake's journey began on the streets, where he spent the first several months of his life fending for himself. Rescued at around 8 months old, he has embraced life as a beloved companion and continues to blossom every day. Jake is a sweet, affectionate, and spirited boy with a fun-loving personality. He's smart, eager to please, and highly responsive to the people he trusts. While he hasn't had extensive formal training, he is a quick learner and would thrive with continued guidance and consistency. One of Jake's favorite pastimes is playing with his beloved Lamb Chop toys—especially if he gets the chance to remove all the fluff! He may not be motivated by every treat, but he's definitely motivated by food and can often be found happily dancing in anticipation of mealtime. Once you discover a treat he truly loves, you'll have his full attention. Jake gets along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and children. He currently lives peacefully with two other dogs and three cats, making him a great candidate for a variety of family situations. He loves car rides, enjoys exploring the yard on his long lead, and is always happy to lend a "paw" in the kitchen—especially when it comes to helping clean dishes in the dishwasher. When the day is done, Jake's favorite place is right beside his people. He's a devoted cuddler who would gladly share your bed and your heart. Jake is looking for a family that will continue to show him patience, love, and understanding as he finishes learning the finer points of being a gentleman. In return, he will reward you with unwavering loyalty, endless affection, and a bond that lasts a lifetime. Once Jake becomes part of your family, he'll become a part of your heart forever. Visit aarfws.org to apply for adoption.

All of our animals are safe. ❤️🐾 Earlier today, we experienced a fire in the ceiling of our shelter. Thanks to the quick response of our staff and the fire department, the situation was brought under control and every animal and staff member is safe. Out of an abundance of caution, Forsyth Humane Society will be closed for the remainder of the day while first responders remain on site and we complete the necessary safety assessments. We are incredibly grateful for the professionalism of our local fire department and for the support and patience of our community. We will share additional updates as they become available. Thank you for keeping our animals, staff, and first responders in your thoughts. ❤️
Last week at Camp: 🦇 Adventure Camp for ages 5–8 was held at Salem Lake. Campers learned about bats and native wildlife through activities such as hiking, nature-themed crafts, and fun games! 🕯️Our Young Apprentice participants stepped back into the 18th century, learning from talented tradespeople and discovering the skills that shaped early life at Historic Bethabara Park. From forging metal as blacksmiths to crafting candles, shaping pottery, and even exploring surveying techniques, each day brought something new to learn. 🌟 Camp Discovery spent the day exploring adaptive outdoor activities at Crossnore Communities for Children’s Miracle Heights Adventure. Smiles, teamwork, and unforgettable memories all around!

Very pleased to welcome @ajleebluesummit back to The Ramkat on October 22, 2026, with special guests @thecodysisters! Doors at 7 PM, show at 8 PM. Tickets go on sale at 10 AM Eastern this Friday, June 12, at TheRamkat.com! AJ Lee & Blue Summit are an award-winning, energetic, charming, and technically jaw-dropping band quickly rising on the national roots music scene. Originally based in Santa Cruz, California, the group met as teenagers, picking and jamming together as kids at local bluegrass festivals until one day, they decided they would be a band. After almost a decade on the road, they have established themselves as one of the most exciting and dynamic groups in Bluegrass. The band is AJ Lee on mandolin, fiddler Jan Purat, Sullivan Tuttle on guitar, and Sean Newman on Bass. The band carries that youthful, festival-parking-lot energy with them still today, but at the same time there’s a genuine ease and confidence to their music making. Their critically acclaimed third studio album City Of Glass was released on Signature Sounds records in 2024. 2025 saw the release of a series of covers featuring guests such as Lindsay Lou, Trey Hensley, Ahn Phung and Kyle Tuttle called Cover to Cover V.1.#ajleeandbluesummit #thecodysisters #theramkat #wsnc #supportlivemusic

🇩🇪World Cup Soccer has arrived in Winston-Salem! GERMAN ROOTS: In the 18th century, a group of German Protestants known as the Moravians settled in what would become Winston-Salem. More than 270 years later, the German National Team has chosen the city as its official base camp for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. COMMUNITY TRAINING SESSION: Last night, fans packed Spry Stadium at @wfuniversity for a ticketed open training session — waving flags, getting autographs, and watching the four-time World Cup champions train up close. WHY WINSTON? Before the session began, the president of the German Football Association addressed the crowd, thanking Winston-Salem for the warm welcome. He said the city was their first choice for base camp due to the accommodations at @graylynestate, the world-class facilities at Spry Stadium, and the proximity between the two. Germany enters the tournament as one of the stronger contenders to win it all.
