Westborough Connects, a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering community connections, is preparing to open its first permanent location, known as The Hub, at 21 East Main St. in Westborough, Massachusetts. After operating for over nine years without a physical space, the nonprofit plans to begin moving into The Hub on July 1. This new facility will serve as a central gathering place aimed at enhancing connection, belonging, and collaboration among local residents. The Hub is strategically located in the Keating Building, identified as one of the town’s key structures, close to Bay State Commons, a popular public area. Executive Director Kelley Petralia emphasized that the new space will enable Westborough Connects to expand its initiatives to strengthen social ties, reduce feelings of isolation, and encourage local involvement. Support for this venture has come from several sponsors, including the Grossman Development Group and Cumulus Global, who are helping to furnish and equip the space. The organization looks forward to inviting the community into The Hub once the move is complete, marking a significant milestone in its mission to build a more connected Westborough.
