Pulitzer Prize Tour Planned Across 20 Cities

Pulitzer Prizes and the American Library Association are launching 'Pulitzer on the Road,' a 20-city touring exhibition to bring a century of Pulitzer-winning journalism, literature, and art to public libraries. The 1,400-square-foot exhibit will launch in October 2026 with stops at the Chicago and Dallas public libraries and will run through May 2028. It features interactive displays spanning reporting on Watergate and the Pentagon Papers, iconic photography like Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima, poetry, plays, and fiction by authors such as Toni Morrison and John Steinbeck. Notable participants include Barbara Kingsolver, Percival Everett, Daniel Kraus, and Gabriela Frank, with appearances tied to the Dallas and Chicago launches. The organizers say the tour aims to democratize access to prize-winning works, foster curiosity, conversation, and civic engagement, and combat misinformation.
