We’re heading out on a field trip on Wednesday, June 8th, 2016 to see the “Cats” show at the Worcester Art Museum in Worcester, Massachusetts. A number of BVAA members are participating in this show!
We’ll meet at the main desk in the lobby at 2pm. Contact Lisa for more details about coordinating with the group if you’re late or lost. The museum’s open until 5pm on Wednesday so there’ll be time to explore the rest of the museum as people choose.
