About DWC

The Downtown Woonsocket Collaborative (DWC) actively participates in Main Street America, focusing on revitalizing historic downtowns. The DWC leads efforts to rejuvenate our commercial district, believing in accessible, vibrant neighborhoods that support a thriving local economy and create welcoming spaces for residents and visitors.

DWC is a non-profit organization comprised of volunteer board members dedicated to improving and promoting downtown Woonsocket. We aspire to make Woonsocket a world-renowned destination by utilizing our city's rich history, culture, and architecture. We are inspired and dedicated to bringing attention, appreciation, and excitement to our community. We want people to visit, work, shop, dine, drink, live, and love Woonsocket.
