T-shirts, decorated by victims and those who honor victims of domestic violence are hung during Peace House's Candlelight Vigil as part of The Clothesline Project Tuesday evening, Oct. 4, 2016. The project, created in 1990, aims to address the issue of violence against women by expressing emotions on a shirt and then hanging it on a clothesline to be viewed by others as a testimony to the problem of violence against women. White shirts are from community members, yellow and orange shirts are from victims/survivors of domestic violence, red/pink shirts are from victims/survivors of rape or sexual assault, blue shirts are from child abuse victims/survivors and purple shirts are from those who have been attacked due to sexual orientation/hate crimes.
