"Re-Imagining The City" at the Worcester PopUp Gallery

Holland Tunnel
Worcester PopUp will open again this week with a brand new show "Re-Imagining The City", the second show of its season. Friday, November 6th from 6:30-8:00pm located at 20 Franklin St, Worcester MA. This show will dive right into the mind of an artist's imagination to explore the many different perspectives of how a City can be viewed. From cityscapes to drone aerial photography, the exhibition will convey an assortment of mixed media pieces including but not limited to photographs, videos and sculptures representing our ever changing city landscapes.

I'm very excited to be taking part in this show along such talented artists like Chris Markman, Victor Pacheco, and Kate Murphy.

The Worcester PopUp is a gallery located at 20 Franklin Street, Worcester, where creative artists and entrepreneurs bring creativity to life through rotating art exhibitions, performances, music, good food, arts and inspiring hands-on activity. The Worcester PopUp is brought to the City of Worcester by the Worcester Cultural Coalition in partnership with the Business Development Corporation, funded in part by the Greater Worcester Community Foundation.

Secret City Interactive

Secret City Interactive (SCI) is working to enhance the quality of life for Worcester residents through augmented reality experiences by connecting Worcester's historic and cultural neighborhoods with its diverse and vibrant communities.

Through the National Science Foundation, The Art of Science Learning sought new transportation solutions to  improve the quality of life for its residents and visitors.

Secret City Interactive was born out of this effort. SCI aims to bring an innovative, interactive, "augmented" experience to anyone traversing the city streets. Worcester is the city of seven hills – each one containing a thousand hidden jewels. How many will you uncover? 

Each SCI hotspot provides the user with a unique, living experience. The content experienced is provided by other local residents and visitors just like you!

In addition to learning a plethora of culturally rich information about any of the neighborhoods in which SCI dwells, the user is encouraged to participate in sharing their own unique “secrets” relevant to the area.

Whether you contribute your unique neighborhood stories or simply want to share your favorite hidden gems in the area, Secret City Interactive is a social media channel that encourages users to interact in their neighborhoods in a very unique way.

Come share your experiences, stories, and city secrets with our Secret City Interactive community. We want to hear from you. Tell us your city's secrets!
