Worcester's famous art museum (tel 508-799-4406), 55 Salisbury Street off Park Avenue and Main Street, will surprise you. It's one of those smaller museums with a comprehensive collection studded with masterpieces. Besides Hicks's Peaceable Kingdom, you'll see Gauguin's famous Brooding Woman, Rembrandt's Saint Bartholomew, and Mary Cassatt's Woman Bathing. The museum has a pleasant cafe serving soups, salads and sandwiches. Wine and beer are served. The way to the museum is marked with signs from the city center.
