Groton Center for the Arts
Contact: webmaster@grotoncenterforthearts.org
Phone: (978) 448-3001
A multi-faceted regional art center, which includes art camp, ice
skating lessons, concerts, art shows, and children and adult art
and craft classes and a regional youth theater company/theater. Our
vision today is to provide children and adults with opportunities
to explore, experience, enjoy and fall in love with the Arts! We
provide quality art experiences through dedicated staff and
community members who contribute their knowledge and time to the
education of the Arts.
The Nashoba Players is a dynamic, non-profit community theatre that
has been dedicated to providing cultural enrichment through live
theatre in drama, musicals and comedy to Westford and surrounding
communities. We began 30 years ago as Groton Theatre and Littleton
Theatre Guild and evolved into Nashoba Players. We are a member of
the Eastern Mass. Assoc. of Community Theatres and are recipients
of repeated recognitions at the EMACT Festivals for outstanding
achievements in our productions. Our commitment to providing
entertainment to the community has reached beyond traditional
theatre. We have offered Summer Theatre Workshops to the youth in
the community culminating in a musical show performed by the teens.
Our home stage is at the Parish Center for the Arts on the common
in Westford. It is an intimate and inviting venue where we offer
cabaret seating for our shows. Our season offers three or more
performances which include drama, comedy, musicals, and sometimes a
whimsical tongue-in-cheek melodrama or an elegant dinner theatre
experience.
The purpose of this site is to inform and connect people with the
vast network of trails in Groton, MA. With over 100 trails spread
across over 100 miles, the town enjoys one of the richest trail
networks in the state. Our goal is to provide a user-friendly trail
system that encourages residents to enjoy the open spaces and
conservation land in Groton. We encourage people to see a different
perspective of Groton by exploring our trails and parts of town
never seen from the roadways. We promote the trails by setting up
and staffing booths during GrotonFest, organizing hikes and the
annual Groton Town Forest Trail Race. The Trails Committee is
responsible for developing new trails and maintaining the existing
trails network in Groton. We evaluate trail routes, consider safety
issues, address parking and access, mark new trails, and revise the
trails map to reflect additions and changes. We also organize hikes
and work parties and are always looking for more participants.
The Paul Center for Learning and Recreation
Phone: 978-256-4396
Email: 39 Concord Road, 01824
The Paul Center is dedicated to assisting individuals with disabilities in developing their maximum potential and independence. We accomplish this goal by providing services to the individual as well as to the family. The Board of Directors and staff of The Paul Center believe that through consistent quality programming we can and do provide an optimal educational and recreational experience needed by our students.We stress with our staff the importance of establishing and maintaining a "spirit of extended family" with our students. This spirit transcends all aspects of our programs and continues to be a significant factor in our success with our students.
We are a Community Theater Troupe based in Boston\'s MetroWest. The Present Players is dedicated to providing quality theater to our community, and we always donate 100% of our proceeds to local causes. We are able to produce 1-2 shows a year, and we donate 100% of our shows\' proceeds to community programs. If you are located in Boston\'s Metro West and have a need for fundraising, consider community theater. If you have an interest in any aspect of Community Theater, we\'d love to have you join us. A good production needs Costumes, Lighting, Sets, and Props not to mention Publicity and help with Tickets. We understand that everyone involved in the company makes the show successful, not just the actors. Come see how rewarding it is be involved with live theater.
