Enjoy walking around the beautiful campus. Bring your friends and family and help yourself to the following free activities at the Benton.
The William Benton Museum of Art at the UConn Storrs’ campus now has I Spy and Scavenger hunt activities for children and families. This is a great activity for kids (best for children ages 5 and up) and some friendly competition between friends and your co-workers. These fun games can be played at your leisure. Just go to the front desk of the museum and ask for the I Spy and/or Scavenger hunt activity. If you find all the works of art you will win a prize.
Also visit the museum’s permanent collection at the Gilman Gallery.
