The Clothes Line Project

The Lamont Gallery exhibited a collection of t-shirts made over the last four years during the Clothesline Project, an annual event that occurs during the Take Back the Night event which focuses on providing an avenue for students to courageously break the silence that often surrounds sexual violence.

Take Back the Night is a movement dedicated to allowing survivors and those around them to create a space to foster a sense of community, acknowledge their hurt, demand change, and show solidarity with all survivors of sexual assault.

This project was brought to fruition between the collaboration of the Director of Student Well-Being and the student club, Exonians Against Sexual Assault (EASA)
