'Clothesline Project'

3:00 PM / April 27, 2022

Penn State Altoona will present the Clothesline Project from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesday, April 27, in the Academic Quad outside the Hawthorn Building. The event is presented as part of the college's commemoration of Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

The Clothesline Project showcases the impact that sexual assault has on college campuses. T-shirts will be available on which students can write their own sexual assault story, words of affirmation, or a supporting quote. These T-shirts will then be hung on a clothesline display. This event is open to the public.

This event is sensitive in nature and may contain content that is disturbing or triggering for some individuals. Participant discretion is advised. Family Services Inc. will have multiple advocates available at every event.

The events are sponsored by Penn State Altoona’s Kappa Omicron Nu and Human Development and Family Studies student organization. More information can be found on Connect.
