QCC Touts New Arts Programming At Hanover Block Party

June 2016

The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts hosted a Theater District Block Party on June 2 to celebrate a new conservatory, pedestrian plaza and nearly $4.6 million raised in a $10 million capital campaign to revitalize downtown Worcester.

The Hanover Theatre Conservatory for the Performing Arts is a new adjoining space, dedicated to musical theater-related programs for students and adults, administrative office and function rooms.

QCC hosted a table at the event to promote the college’s new performing arts programming. In the fall, QCC is offering a Liberal Arts Theater and Liberal Arts Music option as part of its commitment to performing arts programming.

The Liberal Arts Theater option will provide a rigorous aesthetic, intellectual and practical opportunity for students to explore the frontiers of learning and the formation of collaborative communities. The primary mode of study is the practice of theater, involving theoretical, historical, aesthetic and technical elements.

The Liberal Arts Music option will provide a foundational education compromised of the humanities, social sciences and mathematics, with a concentration in music knowledge, skill and a solid base of music proficiency. Upon successful completion program, graduates will be able to demonstrate apply music theory and composition, demonstrate musical proficiency on a chosen instrument and identify historical perspectives of music, among other goals.

Both associate degrees will provide training and opportunities to transfer to a four-year college to continue study in the chosen area of interest.
