Everything from art to zany toys can be found by holiday shoppers this season in the stores and boutiques that abound in the neighborhoods surrounding Yale and in several campus shops.
Among the two newest stores near the campus are Sogno, Boutique of Dreams LLC and the Toystore on Audubon. Yale University Properties helped entice these two stores to a Yale-owned building on Audubon Street as part of the University's focus on the development of the Audubon arts district.
Campus shops that have been a popular destination for holiday shoppers are the Museum Store at the Peabody Museum, the Yale Center for British Art Museum Shop and the Yale University Art Gallery's two museum stores, one of which just opened in November.
Below are the locations and hours of campus museum shops. The shops are open through Dec. 23.
The museum's newly opened second store, which features contemporary art and design, particularly original works by local and international artists, is located at 46 High St. Its hours are Monday-Saturday 10 a.m.-6 p.m., Thursday until 8 p.m. and Sunday noon-5 p.m.
