Clothesline Project T-Shirt Making
Decorate a shirt to add to our Clothesline Project Display
Location
The Commons : The Women's Center
Date
April 1, 2019 – Apr 30, 2019 (All Day Event)
Description
Students, faculty, and staff have made t-shirts describing their experience with relationship violence and sexual assault. On Monday, April 8th these t-shirts will be hung shoulder-to-shoulder on a clothesline for public viewing, as if the survivors are there themselves, telling us their stories.
The Clothesline Project gives voice to the experiences of survivors, victims, family, and friends who have been affected by violence. The Women's Center will be providing materials for those who identify as survivors or victims of violence to decorate t-shirts to add to our clothesline project display throughout the month of April.
UMBC community members impacted by sexual violence are encouraged to make a t-shirt for the display prior to April 8th so it can be included in the display but supplies will be available throughout all of April in the Women's Center. A smaller display can also be viewed at Take Back the Night on April 18th. Community members wishing to make a shirt can let someone at the front desk know they are interested in making a shirt and a staff member will be able to assist you.
