Peace community! This long anticipated event is finally here! Tomorrow evening, this will be the place to be! Don't miss out! Only a few tickets left - be sure to grab one and join us Friday, July 26th!

The Village Worcester joins Music Worcester in bringing The String Queens (TSQ) to Central MA, and this concert serves as an extension of their work building connections across Greater Worcester around racial justice, learning, creativity, community, and healing.

Praised for its authentic, soulful, and orchestral sound, TSQ is a dynamic trio that creates stimulating musical experiences that inspire diverse audiences to love, hope, feel, and imagine! With an array of repertoire spanning from the Baroque era to the Jazz Age to today’s Billboard Hot 100 Chart, TSQ performs versatile programs that take listeners on a rousing musical journey through time and a multitude of musical genres.

As holiday times approach, we have been preparing for one of our favorite times of the year... KWANZAA! Kwanzaa is a pan-Afrikan holiday that encourages those across the diaspora to reconnect with their family, community, and culture!

This year, we will be hosting our annual Community Kwanzaa Celebration in person for the first time since the pandemic. Community members are invited to join us on Friday, December 30th, 2022 from 5 pm to 8 pm to enjoy performers, vendors, food, and edutainment! Bringing a dish for our communal karamu (feast) is helpful but not required! All are welcome to join us (whether this is your first year learning about/celebrating Kwanzaa or you are a seasoned celebrator!)

In addition, we will have a combination of virtual and in-person events every day of Kwanzaa (from December 26th to January 1st). Check out our schedule of events for each day of Kwanzaa and join us as you are able! (A loving reminder that you can celebrate Kwanzaa and Christmas if you so choose)! Feel free to send us a message on messenger or email [email protected] with questions or for more information!

We are looking forward to celebrating Kwanzaa with our community and closing out the new year honoring the Nguzo Saba (7 Principles of Kwanzaa) - Umoja/Unity, Kujichagulia/Self-Determination, Ujima/Collective Work & Responsibility, Ujamaa/Cooperative Economics, Nia/Purpose, Kuumba/Creativity, Imani/Faith.
