Three ways to enjoy bobasnew
Throughout the past 10 years, American cities have witnessed the growth of the curious elixir, boba tea, also commonly called bubble tea or pearl milk tea, and Worcester is no stranger to this popular beverage. The drink typically combines a chilled, blended or iced Asian tea with chewy, pea-sized bubbles of a variety of flavors, from fruit flavors like mango, orange, or coconut, but most commonly tapioca.

Latino communities on display at Fitchburg Art Museumnew
For many Latin American artists, their work is not necessarily an extension of Latin culture. Surprisingly it has more to do with their immediate surroundings and life experiences, which have the greatest influence on them. They are inspired by a myriad of ideas that transcend a vision as opposed to a particular culture. This fall, the Fitchburg Art Museum (FAM) will feature exhibits that focus on the works of Latino artists, recognizing their contributions to the arts.
