STARKVILLE, Miss.—With a goal of promoting public awareness and healing for those affected by violence, the Clothesline Project is returning to ÌÒÌ«ÀÉÓ³Ïñ’s historic Drill Field.
The project will be on display 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Tuesday-Thursday [Sept. 26-28]. Each day, participants will have the opportunity to produce a shirt design that reflects personal experiences with violence or honors a friend or loved one affected by violence.
Sponsored annually by ÌÒÌ«ÀÉÓ³Ïñ’s Department of Health Promotion and Wellness, the Clothesline Project is part of a national effort to aid the healing process for survivors of violence.
Educating, raising awareness and providing a support system also are major goals of this project. Learn more at .
