Located in the heart of Massachusetts, Worcester combines the historic charm of a small, New England town with the conveniences and attractions of a thriving metropolis.  Home to the newly renovated DCU Center - Arena and Convention Center, The Hanover Theatre for Performing Arts, Worcester Art Museum, Mechanics Hall, and the Worcester Center for Crafts, the city offers an inviting and entertaining arts scene. 

The city boasts 10 colleges and universities, including The College of the Holy Cross, Assumption College, and Worcester Polytechnic Institute.  Centrally located about 50 minutes west of Boston and north of Providence, Rhode Island, the city is also home to the Worcester Regional Airport.  Visitors can fly JetBlue direct to Orlando and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and soon, New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport.
