    UConn Abrahamic Programs serves as an academic umbrella that fosters cross-border research collaboration, intercultural communication, and community engagement to explore emerging trends and issues of critical importance in the Middle East and North Africa.

    Abrahamic Programs support peaceful co-existence and regional academic integration in the MENA region and provide an alternative framework for productive on-campus programing and dialogue at the University of Connecticut. Along with the School of Fine Arts, Humanities Institute, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Human Rights Institute, Asian and Asian American Studies Institute, Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry, The William Benton Museum of Art, and UConn Hillel, Abrahamic Programs is proud to present The Story of the Tree.

    The Story of the Tree is a semester-long exploration of the Tree of Life in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam through art exhibitions, walking tours, performances, and lectures. Come take a tour of the UConn Botanical Conservatory greenhouses on Friday, February 17th at 2:00PM. The tour is free and open to the public.
