  • WOW Activities from The Benton Museum

    Welcome back UConn Students!
     
    Looking for a fun way to enjoy or explore UConn's beautiful campus?
    Try our new self-guided Art and Sculpture Hunts using your mobile phone.  
    Learn more about the art you see around you on campus.
    This is a great activity to do with friends or dorm mates while socially distancing and adhering to UConn's rules.  
    Don’t forget to wear a mask! 
     
    Each walk is about 45 minutes long. The North Campus Hunt ends at the Dairy Bar – remember to order your ice cream online ahead of time.
     
    If you are away from campus play online.
     
     
    RULES:
    • DO take a selfie with the works of art and share it with us at benton@uconn.edu to enter a daily drawing through August 30. (If you are not on campus send us a screenshot of your finished hunt to enter a special daily drawing).
    • DO be safe and don’t touch the works of art. This is an observational hunt.
    • DO be safe and stay a safe distance from other visitors.
    • DO respect the works of art and leave no evidence of your visit behind.
    • Happy hunting!
