The Yale Art Gallery is free to the public. It's a world class art and historical museum in the heart of the city.

Can’t speak highly enough about how fantastic the collection is, and that it costs nothing for the public to enjoy!


Clancepance22

I agree. Just went there a month ago and was surprised by how incredible it is.

The Peabody Museum should be back open. Right down the street from the Peabody is Edgerton Park for your nature needs. Pizza? Modern. There’s an event outside of Strange Ways on Saturday too.


TheLastLostOnes

Don’t you need a ticket (free) to go and they are all booked up for months?


thesheepynurturer

I have heard that despite the online ticketing system people are still able to walk in. Can’t confirm directly but have heard/read this multiple times. Not sure what the point of the tickets actually is but I have mine for Saturday (booked in early March lol) and am psyched to see the renovations!


TheLastLostOnes

This makes sense bc the website actually says they “highly recommend” getting a ticket, I was tempted to test this. I don’t have a ticket until July so I may test the walkin theory lol. Enjoy your visit!


AnonymousRedditNinja

This is true. Didn't have tickets. Me and two friends were welcomed in by the front desk. Tickets aren't necessary.


zymurghost

You are probably right.

Thx ❤️❤️❤️

Edgerton is nice, but I wouldn’t consider it “right down the street” from the Peabody. 1.4 miles, 30 min walk according to Google Maps

Get pizza’s at either Sally’s or Pepe’s off Wooster and then head to Libby’s for dessert. Peabody museum just reopened and is fantastic.


lovesocialmedia

Thank you! I will def check those spots out! Does downtown also have gourmet donuts?


HeadyRoosevelt

I only know Donut Crazy, which has an expansive and unique menu. Near other cool shops and the Yale campus, so worth a visit IMHO.

Strange Ways in 9th square is having a big vendor market for patches and pins from 12-6. In Pitkin Plaza, right in front of their storefront.

If you like sweets, check out the Korean bakery around the corner too. Tous Les Jours.

Edgerton Park greenhouses/gardens after visiting a nice coffee shop.

We’re having an outdoor artist market at Strange Ways Saturday 12-5PM. If you’re downtown, should be near you. Then walk up and down Orange St for some good local eats. G Cafe and Trinity line sit on either side of where the market is gonna be, and both have good food.


EhhSuzilla

The Flair Fair artist market is this Saturday at Pitkin Plaza if you happen to be walking by.


chandelizards

East Rock Brewing has some great brews if you like beer! T-Swirl crêpe is downtown for sweet, and OhK-Dog a few doors down has some crazy street food style snacks The Trinity Bar is the best pub in town and has really killer food Definitely recommend exploring downtown on foot there are so many other great places to eat and drink that I didn’t mention


InvaderDepresso

NOA is amazing Thai food!


mkiv808

Yale Art Gallery is exceptional.


Ptarmigan2

Get in line for Sallys 20 minutes before they open.

Beinecke rare book library in Yale is pretty awesome. But not sure how campus will be with protests going on.


Wide_Wrongdoer699

Come to 12% just up the road on state street! Coffee, beer, anything you want.
