Worcester Telegram highlights AHF-Becker College Partnership to Redevelop the Aud

On September 9, the Worcester Telegram featured the Worcester Aud redevelopment project in its news coverage. The article emphasized AHF's partnership with Becker College to explore possible uses of the Aud as a visual arts and technology center: 

​City Manager Edward M. Augustus Jr. said the two parties are looking into the feasibility of converting part of the Lincoln Square landmark into a cutting-edge, interactive media, technology and arts center. He said it would support content creation, streaming, competitive gaming, online production and include an eSports venue, as well as collaboration, education, design and development facilities.
​​​Mr. Augustus said the Architectural Heritage Foundation, which is doing the feasibility study for the city, is pursuing a reuse program for the Memorial Auditorium that would cater to the vibrant content creation community and burgeoning eSports industry. “Becker College’s top-ranked game design program and degree program in eSports management make it a logical candidate for this use program,” the manager wrote in a report that goes before the City Council Wednesday night.
