For the holidays, the Worcester Art Museum evokes the spirit of the season with live concerts in the Renaissance Court, seasonal children's programming, decorations inside and outside the Museum, and expanded Shop and Café hours.
Festivities include a live performance from Alloy Orchestra, a three man musical ensemble working with an outrageous assemblage of peculiar objects, The Nutcracker presented by the Youth Ballet Company from Ballet Arts Worcester, and choral music concerts sung by the Salisbury Singers and the Ghanaian Choir of Wesley United Methodist Church.
Giving our visitors the gift of time, the Museum’s Members’ Council is providing complimentary gift wrapping after each concert for purchases made in The Museum Shop. Guests are also encouraged to take part in the season’s tours and lectures, scheduled from the end of November through December. For more information, visit the Holidays at WAM 2013 event page.
All holiday programming and activities are free with museum admission.
