DIRECTIONS

From East or West, make sure you take Business 40/421 through town, NOT the I-40 bypass around Winston-Salem. Silas Creek Parkway (North) exits from Business 40 only. The Wake Forest exit is clearly marked after you pass Robinhood Road. Once you are on campus, take the first LEFT on Allen Easley St. and the next RIGHT on Aaron Lane to the parking lot. This area looks residential but goes right to the parking lot at the Scales Fine Arts Center and Brendle Recital Hall. If there are no parking spots after you unload, proceed to parking lot W.
