THE CLOTHESLINE PROJECT
Clothesline Projects all over the world remind people of the real meaning of violence statistics that are often ignored. It originated in Hyannis, Massachusetts in 1990 when a member of the Cape Cod's Women's Defense Agenda learned that during the same time 58,000 soldiers were killed in the Vietnam War, 51,000 U.S. women were killed by the men who claimed to love them.

The Clothesline Project has been displayed at Utah Valley University each year since 1998. All of the shirts in this display were made by people in Utah County who visited the display, reflecting the reality that violence is a problem everywhere - even in Utah County.
Create a Shirt
Shirts and the materials to decorate them are available to the public free of charge.
The shirts can be made at the display, or they can be made elsewhere and dropped off
at the Clothesline Project at a later time.
