I've been here at the Worcester Historical Museum 5 times in the pasted few years, with family this is a beautiful Museum dedicated to our wonderful amazing City of Worcester MA! The reason that brought us in to go to the Worcester Historical MA this pasted Tuesday 8-16-22 , was that my 96 year old Grandfather is coming to visit from Florida with my 94 year Grandmother, we wanted to get him the the wicked cool black tee- shirt that ("say's all the different ways you can Pronounce WORCESTER ")! I'd gotten one a few years ago pior, my grandfather lived in Worcester MA, many years ago. So this shirt has some meaning behind it. This Museum is a great place to go to with young children and adults . It was (FREE Admission ) for us to enter if Im correct It's been (" FREE Admission since Middle of July till the End of August 2022") ,this is another part of celebrating Worcester 300th Tercentennial . Also, during the entire month of February they usually run " FREE " Admission because the kids that are in the Worcester Public schools are on February vacation! Great time to go too! A few things did change, I'd noticed that a few things were up & running at the Museum! Not many people there when we were there.

Love it! Is a place with lots of things to learn from Massachusetts even to know the real creator of the famous Smiley Face Emoji ?. If you are around Worcester Ma you can't miss it !!

The museum is relatively small, but there is a lot of stuff packed in, particularly in the room filled with all the industries that have called Worcester home throughout the years.
We also drove the short distance to the Salisbury Mansion (part of the museum). The tour we got was a little rushed as it was the end of the day, but the guide was incredibly knowledgeable and it was both fun and interesting.

Went to Visit the For the Record GLBQ+ Exhibit. Easy to get to. Easy parking. Low price admission. Greeted at the door by friendly volunteer staff. Temporary exhibits are right off the lobby and were easy to find. Well lit and spacious halls. Great local museum. A real treasure.

It had been several years since Id been to the museum. What brought us back this time was to.view the wonderful Denholm exhibit. We were greeted by a friendly and knowledgeable volunteer. From there we made our way through the museum's permanent exhibits that are very informative and with each visit I learn something new! We very much enjoyed the Denholm exhibit. Viewing it brought us both back to our own happy days ?

The WHM is an amazing place to see. It is fascinating to see and learn about all those who were part of Worcester's great history. From inventors, famous poets, artists, founders, planners, sports stars, and all those who paved the way to make Worcester such an interesting place to be. Trying to imagine the streets filled with people cheering people like Marshal Taylor or Bob Cousy is easier to imagine walking through this gem of a museum in Worcester. I look forward to the upcoming Denholm's exhibit!

Awesome experience and fantastic to learn some things about the area!

Great for post lunch afternoon activity. Anyone from Worcester County should go see it - only takes about 1-2 hours to go through

More enjoyable than Boston Science Museum! It’s quick, sweet, and a great experience.
