Family Day at the Peabody Museum

Tuesday, April 17, 2012 at 11:00 am to 2:00 pm

Museum admission required

Bring the whole family to celebrate Family Day at the Yale Peabody Museum! We’ll set up many of our fun and exciting games, crafts and other activities for the whole family to enjoy. During this event your family will be able to enjoy our exhibit Big Food: Health, Culture and the Evolution of Eating.  Through displays set up by local food- and health-related organizations, visitors will have the opportunity to learn even more about nutrition, healthy life choices, physical fitness, food system sustainability and environmental justice.

 

Big Food: Health, Culture and the Evolution of Eating is a collaboration between the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History, CARE: Community Alliance for Research and Engagement at the Yale School of Public Health, and the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity.

 

Presenting Sponsor: Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield Foundation
