ABOUT THE CLOTHESLINE PROJECT
The Clothesline Project is a visual display of t-shirts with graphic messages and illustrations that have been designed by female survivors or by someone who loves a woman who has been killed by violence.
The purpose of the Clothesline Project is to increase awareness of the impact of violence against women, to celebrate a woman's strength to survive and to provide another avenue for her to courageously break the silence that often surrounds her experience
