Worcester Aud

The Architectural Heritage Foundation will preserve and redevelop the "Aud" as an innovative cultura

Today we honor those who fought to protect this country. In 1933, a "grateful city" erected the Worcester Auditorium as a memorial to those who fought in World War I - and, as the inscription says: to nourish in peace their spirit of sacrifice.

We get it: old buildings can give off some majorly spooky vibes. But maybe that's part of the attraction? We certainly can't get enough of these eerie shots of The Aud taken by . Boo!

So many of us have fond memories of the Aud and I’m going to do all I can to help bring it back to its proper place as an architectural and cultural gem in the City.

Imagine The Aud as a center for digital innovation and the arts - the perfect link between WPI, the Salisbury Cultural District and downtown. Strong neighborhood connectivity means a stronger urban economy.

- The Aud is a time capsule. Wander through any of the side chambers, and you'll find the relics of events gone by. Like stacks upon stacks of sheet music of choral works by Wagner and Holst.

On the outside, The Aud is the epitome of Classical Revival architecture, but on the inside, Art Deco reigns supreme. The best example can be found in the entrance lobby, a warmly lit, marble hall featuring geometrical designs and rich colors that are the hallmark of Art Deco style. With outside investment and funding, the Architectural Heritage Foundation will be able to open the lobby to audiences once again.
