In the fall of 2023, a journalist from Cosmopolitan Magazine visited downtown New Haven on a mission to explore the best of our city. During her time in Elm City, she experienced everything our community offers, from delicious eats to lively cultural events, culminating in a feature story about New Haven. The soundbite review of our beloved city is as follows: “The food and cocktails? Top tier. The museums? Immaculate. The people? Gorge and diverse. Now go pack your bags!”
Written for Cosmopolitan’s travel section, Cosmo Trips, the story features insights from Adriane Jefferson, the Director of Cultural Affairs for the City of New Haven, history from Discovering Amistad, culture from the Puerto Rican Festival of New Haven, and delicacies from Anchor Spa and BAR Brick Oven Pizza. Head to Cosmopolitan to read the story, “New Haven Is the Cultural Hotspot You Didn’t Know You Needed (Yes, in Connecticut!).”
