The Shops at Yale and Whitney-Audubon Retail & Arts District are excited to announce the return of the annual Window Art Stroll & Contest, taking place in downtown New Haven from Saturday, May 7 (rain date May 8) through Monday, May 30.

The Window Art Stroll & Contest is a self-guided walking tour with an online people’s choice voting system. Installations will take place on Saturday, May 7 (rain date May 8) beginning at 9:00am at thirty locations throughout three districts in historic downtown New Haven — Broadway, Chapel, and Whitney-Audubon. Guests are welcome to watch as artists transform merchants’ windows into colorful, summer-themed art displays.

Returning for its second year, the event has quickly become a favorite amongst the local community for bringing the incredible talent of thirty Connecticut artists to downtown New Haven by incorporating their work into many local businesses. In addition to having the opportunity to showcase their work, artists will have their contact information displayed to help promote and support their products and services. After last year’s event, many of them were offered commissioned projects. Read More
