About Yale

In the words of the historian George W. Pierson, Yale University, founded in 1701, is “at once a tradition, a community of scholars, and a society of friends.”

This Tumblr is a photo album, sketchbook and moodboard of sights and sounds from around the University and our home, New Haven, Connecticut. Some truly incredible people live, learn, teach and play here - we would like to introduce you to a few of them.

Want to submit something to be published on the blog (say, a photo of the Wooster Square cherry blossoms in bloom, or even a personal video project)? Go right ahead and send it through the Submissions page.
“Lunar Sphere” by David Ellsworth is one of over seventy works on display in the Conversations with Wood exhibit at the Yale University Art Gallery.
The exhibition is drawn from the world-renowned wood art collection of Ruth and David Waterbury, B.A. 1958, demonstrating superb craftsmanship, a rich diversity of techniques, and changing approaches to the art of wood turning.

There’s something both haunting and serene about this moment.
British sculptor Henry Moore’s “Draped Seated Woman 1957–58” sits nestled within the falling snow on the sculpture terrace of the Yale University Art Gallery. This photo was taken during last winter’s blizzard. The cast is one of only six in the world.
The Gallery is always free, and open to the public.
