The Burncoat Center for Arts and Wellness has brought so much to our neighborhood! Where do I even begin??? There are classes and events for all ages and every month there are new and exciting classes to try!

Hand soap, cleaner, laundry sheets, shampoo, conditioner etc. I don’t know anyone else who has a store with sustainable products so close to home. Then there’s gifts for everyone for all occasions! A birthday? Going to BCAW! Christmas gifts? Stop by BCAW! And then there are the festivals!!!! Haven’t been?

Absolutely one of my favorite places in Worcester! I love BCAW's mission and the owners are definitely true to upholding their mission.

All of their refillery options are non-toxic as well which is a huge plus. They also have tons of beautiful handmade, local, gifts for sale which is wonderful. Can't say enough...
