It is comprised of three primary downtown zones as well as four satellite destinations at the Wright-Locke Farm, the Sanborn House & Cultural Center, the Winchester Community School of Music, and 50 Cross Street. Art and cultural is intermixed throughout the Cultural District including Cultural Assets, our outdoor Winchester Riverwalk exhibit, Winchester Cultural Council's Utility Box program. While you are enjoying the cultural assets, there are many shops and dining options as well. |
