Family Programs, Stories and Art

Yale University Art Gallery, 1111 Chapel St., New Haven, CT, 06510 MAP
On the Second Sunday of each month, the Gallery invites families to learn more about works of art in Stories and Art.

Tales of distant times and faraway lands inspire children of all ages to view art in new ways. Yale students and Gallery staff relate folktales and myths from across the globe to works of art in the Gallery’s collection. All ages are welcome, and drawing materials will be provided for older children.

No registration required; please meet at the Information Desk.
