The Clothesline Project 2025
The Grace Smith House Clothesline Project is a powerful visual display of t-shirts created by survivors of domestic violence or their loved ones. Each shirt is designed to represent the unique experience of a particular victim.
This emotional expression is part of a national movement to bear witness to these experiences, help those impacted with the healing process, and educate document, and raise our community's awareness of the extent of domestic and sexual violence problems.
Grace Smith House is the custodian of the largest collection of t-shirts in Dutchess County. There are over 400 shirts, spanning back over the past 40 years. Each year, we try to bring T-shirts which have not been seen in a while.
This year, Grace Smith House is bringing the Clothesline Project 2025 to River Valley Arts Center in Wappingers Falls, New York. We hope to see you there.
