The Women\u2019s Leadership Project at Fort Hays State University is partnering with Options Domestic and Sexual Violence Services and Jana\u2019s Campaign to host the \u201cWhat Were You Wearing\u201d exhibit.<\/p>\n
The display, in honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, will be available from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Wednesday, April 18, through Friday, April 20, at the Hays Arts Center Annex, 1010 Main St. The exhibit will also be displayed from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday, April 24, and Wednesday, April 25, on the main floor of FHSU\u2019s Forsyth Library.<\/p>\n
The art installation features a collection of articles of clothing recreated to represent clothing worn by survivors of sexual assault at the time of their assault. The question, \u201cWhat were you wearing\u201d is pervasive for many, if not most, survivors.
\n\u201cThis art installation, originating at the University of Arkansas in 2013, seeks to educate participants and bring awareness,\u201d said Hollie Marquess, instructor of history. \u201cThe clothing a person wears is never an invitation to, nor a cause, of sexual assault.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
