Its mission to collect\, share\, and celebrate the Latino experience in Worcester drives a community-centered effort to demonstrate the central role that Latinos played in Worcester and the nation’s larger history. \nThe LHPW’s growing collection of recorded oral history interviews\, photographs\, artifacts\, and written sources will benefit future researchers\, Worcester community members\, and students of all ages. For over a decade\, the project has hosted community events to examine a wide range of topics\, from the fights for bilingual education\, fair housing\, and police reform\, to the role of religion and spirituality in the lives of the Latino community. The project opened its first major exhibit at the Museum of Worcester in 2024. Digital exhibits\, archives\, and a print catalog documenting Worcester’s Latino history will soon follow. \nThis year’s main event to celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month will feature a discussion of the project and the larger effort to move Latino stories from the margins to the center of American history. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nAbout The Guest Speaker\nWe are honored to host Dr. Tey Marianna Nunn as guest speaker.

Saint James) and discusses them through a Native American perspective and through the stories they tell of environmental change. It covers Nipmuc relations with colonial settlers and the Jesuit community from the 1500s to today. \nWe are particularly excited to show this film on the exterior of The Prior Performing Arts Center in the Patterson Amphitheatre\, whose site is featured at the start of the film. There was a time when all Holy Cross students knew of Pakachoag\, but that knowledge has been lost. This film seeks to revive a widespread knowledge of the indigenous identity and significance of Pakachoag Hill and today’s larger Worcester region. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\n\n \n \n \n \n \n September 3\, 20257:30 p.m. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Price\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Free entry \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Venue\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nBuilding Exterior located in the Patterson AmphitheatrePrior Performing Arts Center URL:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/event/outdoor-film-screening-pakachoag-where-the-river-bends/ LOCATION:OUTDOOR FILM SCREENING – Patterson Amphitheatre at The Prior\, 1 College St\, Worcester\, MA\, 01610\, United States CATEGORIES:Holy Cross Community ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/PAKACHOAG-NEW-WEB.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250807T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250807T160000 DTSTAMP:20260526T074715 CREATED:20250716T142137Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250716T143043Z UID:4546-1754582400-1754582400@priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu SUMMARY:A Midsummer Night's Dream (abridged) DESCRIPTION:Co-presented by Holy Cross Scholarship in Action & Clark University’s Office of Global Engagement\n \n \n \n \n \n A Midsummer Night’s Dream\n \n Reserve Seats\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nShakespeare’s classic play comes to The Prior in this abridged co-presentation from Holy Cross’ Scholarship in Action & Clark University’s Office of Global Engagement\, directed by Martha Douglas-Osmundson starring students of the Clark University-Hefei University of Technology Summer 2025 Program.\n\nGeneral admission seating.

Flower finds himself at home on a concert stage supporting groups such as the Silkroad Ensemble\, or David Krakauer as well as in louder settings with long-time collaborators Carla Kihlstedt\, Matthias Bossi\, and Jon Evans. \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\n \n \n \n \n \n \n February 27\, 20257:00 PM \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Price\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Free EntryRegistration Required \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Venue\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nLuth Concert HallThe Prior Performing Arts Center \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Explore More URL:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/event/jeremy-flower/ LOCATION:PRIOR PRESENTS – Luth Concert Hall –\, 1 College St\, Worcester\, MA\, 01610\, United States CATEGORIES:Holy Cross Community,Prior Presents ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/jeremy-flower-landscape-web.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20241101T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20241101T133000 DTSTAMP:20260526T074715 CREATED:20241021T154416Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241021T154439Z UID:2440-1730467800-1730467800@priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu SUMMARY:Gospel Choir Concert at All Saint's Day Mass DESCRIPTION:Holy Cross Community\n \n \n \n \n \n Gospel Choir Concert at All Saint’s Day Mass\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nAs we continue to celebrate the centennial of St. Joseph Memorial Chapel and mark the beginning of Black Catholic History Month\, join us for All Saints Day Mass\, at 12:05pm on November 1. \nThe Gospel Choir from St. Augustine’s Church in Washington\, DC – the Mother Church of Black Catholics in the Nation’s Capital – will provide music for Mass and offer a mini-concert of their repertoire following  at 1:30pm. \nThe Chaplains’ Office will incorporate images of the Saintly Six and prayers for their canonization into the celebration. \nStudents from both the Nativity School of Worcester and the Nativity of Boston will also be in attendance. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\n \n \n \n \n \n \n November 1\, 202412:00 PM Mass1:30 PM Concert \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Price\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Free Entry \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Venue\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nSt. Joseph Memorial Chapel URL:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/event/gospel-choir-concert-at-all-saints-day-mass/ LOCATION:HOLY CROSS COMMUNITY – St. Joseph Memorial Chapel –\, 1 College St\, Worcester\, MA\, 01610\, United States CATEGORIES:Holy Cross Community ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/all-saints-mass-choir.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20241029T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20241029T170000 DTSTAMP:20260526T074715 CREATED:20241002T161905Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241002T161909Z UID:2290-1730215800-1730221200@priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu SUMMARY:Songwriting Workshop with River Glen DESCRIPTION:Holy Cross Community\n \n \n \n \n \n Songwriting Workshop with River Glen\n \n Sign Up: Oct 29\, 2024 @ 3:30 PM\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nIn this workshop\, students will discuss how to create words and music that matter to them.

The film takes viewers on a tour of key sites on Pakachoag Hill (now commonly known as College Hill or Mt. Saint James) and discusses them through a Native American perspective and through the stories they tell of environmental change. It covers Nipmuc relations with colonial settlers and the Jesuit community from the 1500s to today. \nWe are particularly excited to show this film for the first time at (and indeed on!) the Prior Center\, whose site is featured at the start of the film. There was a time when all Holy Cross students knew of Pakachoag\, but that knowledge has been lost. This film seeks to revive a widespread knowledge of the indigenous identity and significance of Pakachoag Hill and today’s larger Worcester region. \nThe documentary brings together primary resources from the American Antiquarian Society\, the Holy Cross Archives\, the Worcester Historical Museum and other repositories\, with perspectives from three narrators: Cheryll Holley of the Nipmuc Nation\, Thomas Doughton\, Nipmuc historian and Senior Lecturer at the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies at Holy Cross\, and Colin Novick\, environmental historian and Executive Director of the Greater Worcester Land Trust. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\n \n \n \n \n \n \n September 4\, 20247:30 PM \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Price\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Free Entry \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Venue\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nOutdoor Film ScreeningPrior Performing Arts Center URL:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/event/pakachoag-where-the-river-bends/ LOCATION:OUTDOOR FILM SCREENING – Patterson Amphitheatre at The Prior\, 1 College St\, Worcester\, MA\, 01610\, United States CATEGORIES:Holy Cross Community ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/pakachoag-where-the-river-bends.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
