![]() With this exhibit, we wish to acknowledge Professor of Art Emeritus Roger L. Crossgrove’s impact as a teacher and mentor on the careers of a generation of artists. From March 24 through May 25, all exhibition spaces in the Homer Babbidge Library and the Thomas J. Dodd Research Center will display the work of more than sixty artists who once were Roger’s students, either during his fifteen years at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn or at the University of Connecticut’s School of Fine Arts, where he taught for twenty years. The exhibit is also an opportunity to recognize Roger for his significant contributions to the University of Connecticut Libraries. Since his retirement from the University in 1988, Roger has established a strong bond with the Libraries through his support for the Northeast Children’s Literature Collections in the Dodd Research Center, as a valued member of the University Libraries’ Exhibits Committee, and as a key participant in the planning for the annual Connecticut Children’s Book Fair. Beyond the Libraries and the University, Roger has been intimately involved in the cultural and artistic life of Hartford and Eastern Connecticut. There is scarcely an arts organization in the region that has not been enriched by his knowledge, his enthusiasm, his generous spirit, and of course, by his own creative work. An Appreciation by Jos.
