Last week's Summertime Social was the start of another #reynoldasummer. We have even more offerings this month so you can soak up the season.
Proceed Moon: A Dream at Reynolda

Multiple dates and times through June 19.
Cost: $8 for adults, $5 for students (age 1+) and members of Reynolda House or the Children's Museum of Winston-Salem.

"Proceed Moon" is set in 1919 and depicts the children, teachers and managers of the Reynolda Estate preparing an extravagant production of Shakespeare in the formal gardens. In this fictional play, everyone on the estate is getting involved to put on William Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream," except young Rosalie, who finds herself dreaming on her own. But when something goes missing within the play, Rosalie's vision is awakened.
