Storrs, Connecticut

The Pandemic Journaling Project (PJP) team is proud to bring our traveling version of Picturing the Pandemic: Images from the Pandemic Journaling Project to Babbidge Library at the University of Connecticut (UConn) in Storrs, Connecticut, in March 2025.

UConn is one of PJP’s home institutions, along with Brown University. Together, PJP and the Picturing the Pandemic exhibition have received generous support from across UConn, especially from the Humanities Institute, Human Rights Institute, Office of the Vice President for Research, Provost's Office, Global Affairs,  and InCHIP (Institute for Collaboration on Health, Intervention, and Policy). A full sponsor list is available here.

As the team told UConn Today, many UConn offices, institutes, and departments have supported PJP over the past five years, and “Bringing the exhibit to Babbidge Library is our thank you note to UConn.”
