Pick Up the Thread: A Post-Election Connection, One Year Later

November 13, 2025, 1:00–3:00pm
Native American Cultural Programs Space, SU 102

The Well-Being Collective and the Humanities Institute, with the support of the UConn Library, Native American Cultural Programs, Student Activities, and Student Health and Wellness, present a moment of pause, inclusivity, and reflection one year after the 2024 election.

All members of the UConn community are encouraged to join in this moment of pause, inclusivity, and reflection one year after the 2024 election. Come to relax, reflect, and share in collective art-making and meaningful dialogue. There will be faculty and staff experts to help facilitate conversations, and materials for a collective fiber arts project—representing the thread that weaves us all together—will be provided should you feel called to learn or contribute to the endeavor. We invite everyone to explore ways to create and maintain community in politically charged times.

This event is taking place as part of a day of Post-Election Connections, featuring a Well-Being collective forum from 10:30am-12:00pm (Student Union 104), and a Know Your Rights workshop with Junta hosted by the Rainbow Center Out to Lunch Lecture Series at 12:00pm (Rainbow Center, Storrs, Student Union 403).
