Join My Sister's Place DC's first domestic violence shelter for The Clothesline Project DC during Domestic Violence Awareness Month. This event is a free community art installation raising awareness for domestic violence, where every shirt tells a powerful story. Attendees are invited to add their voice to the line during this impactful event; registration via Eventbrite is encouraged.
On Saturday, October 24th, we invite survivors, allies, and neighbors to Alethia Tanner Park for an afternoon of art, healing, and solidarity. The centerpiece of our event is the Clothesline Project: participants decorate T-shirts with messages of strength and remembrance that are displayed on a clothesline throughout the day, creating a living tribute to everyone touched by domestic violence.
This is a free, family-friendly event and all are welcome.
