WORCESTER – You might be feeling bored while social distancing.
Many businesses are closed and you may feel like there is nothing to do on the weekend – BUT there are still fun events going on in Worcester!
There’s virtual activities to keep you busy all weekend long and you do not even need to leave your house!
ThisWeekinWorcester.com has put together a list of social distance-friendly activities to check out this weekend!
Get connected with the community with virtual open mic nights, schedule arts and crafts for the whole family, and cook a delicious meal – all while staying in your pajamas!
Make family fun in the kitchen!
Supper time will be super with Northeast Pizza’s pizza making kits. These kits will give you all the ingredients you will need to assemble your own cheese or pepperoni pizza! Cook up some delicious entertainment your whole family will love! These kits can be found at their Leicester location. Northeast Pizza is offering 25% off all online orders until April 6.
The Worcester, Barre, and West Brookfield restaurants are temporarily closed.
Walk for a cause! Walk MS is still moving forward to hold events to raise money for MS research.
Of course, each walk will be virtual.
You can still support the health of your local community by registering, fundraising, and walking for this cause in order to raise awareness for this disease. Walk MS is asking you to get creative by posting pictures of yourself in your Walk MS gear, walking safely- six feet apart from others- or on your treadmill at home!
The EcoTarium may be closed due to social distancing, but their social media has never been more active!
Your kids can participate in arts and crafts with the EcoTarium’s Eco at Home and Science at Home activities!

You don’t have to book this story time!
