Clothesline Project is a national program to increase awareness of the impact of violence against women and empower us to break the silence of our experience courageously.

Sponsored by the Women’s Studies Program and WSAC. Please join us and create a T-shirt. All are welcome.

History of the Clotheslines Project
➔ The first Clothesline Project originated in Hyannis, Massachusetts, in 1990.
➔ A motivated women’s group created a program that would speak up and reveal the issue
of violence against women. One of the women, visual artist Rachel Carey-Harper, thought of hanging
color-coded t-shirts on a clothesline in a public place to gain recognition of the issue.
➔ Trinity Washington University has participated in the Clothesline Project since 2009
