Many of you have already interacted with Jan F. through the admissions office. If you’ve met her, you’re already familiar with the fact that she’s totally wonderful. As a long-time New Haven area resident, Jan also has a hidden talent for coming up with wonderful stuff to put on this blog. Two wonderful, FREE things for you to do this summer:
The Elm City Shakespeare Company combines several of my favorite things: theater, the outdoors, and cheap-like-free pricing. Elm City puts on free shows in Edgerton Park, a quick walk from YDS and most points in East Rock. You’ll note that neither of this year’s productions are actually written by Shakespeare, but I think we should all agree to overlook that in the spirit of summer outdoor festivals. Shows start mid-August.
N.B: We will be taking you to an Elm City Shakespeare production during BTFO. So if you want, you can save it until then. No, I don’t know which show yet.
Jan also recommends the Knights of Columbus Museum in New Haven. Parking and admission are both free (!), and the museum brings in exhibits of art and history that look pretty cool, including contemporary stuff. This is a good reminder to me to actually go here; I’ve been meaning to for quite a while, even though both K of C buildings in New Haven are really ugly. (Then again, a lot of the modernist and international styles of architecture are just lost on me. Feel free to form your own opinion.)
Once again, thanks Jan!
