Painted T-shirts will hang from clotheslines on the mall. The shirts will display a moving and personal tribute to women as victims and survivors of violence.
Male survivors can submit shirts for display, too.
It gives people a chance to express their experiences in a visual way. Colors will represent the different experiences women have witnessed or have been subjected to themselves. The purpose of the project is to help with the healing process for people who have lost a loved one or are survivors of violence, and to educate and inform others of the problem of violence against women. A variety of informational materials will be available at the Compton Union Building Mall throughout the week. For those interested in painting a shirt, stop by the Women's Resource Center, located in Wilson Hall, Room 8, during office hours 8 a.m.-5 p.m.
