Printer FriendlyWhile the workshop week is a full one, participants arriving early or staying beyond the program's end will find plenty to choose from within Lowell's remarkable array of cultural offerings.
Not far from the Boott Cotton Mills Museum are the American Textile History Museum, New England Quilt Museum, Revolving Museum and National Streetcar Museum of Lowell.
Lowell's arts scene continues to grow and thrive, with such institutions as the Whistler House Museum of Art, Brush Art Gallery and Studios, and Merrimack Repertory Theater drawing visitors from throughout the region.
Lowell's downtown historic district is lined with shops, antique stores, and a variety of ethnic restaurants, often housed in beautifully restored buildings.
Lowell is also home to a minor-league ballpark. Other downtown-area attractions include Kerouac Park and the nearby Riverwalk along the Merrimack.
