Collecting Loss: Weaving Threads of Memory


November 16, 2012 to November 30, 2012


Collecting Loss: Weaving Threads of Memory is a community-based art project, which began with:
Collecting clothing that belonged to people who have died and collecting the story this clothing evokes from those who love them.

Donated clothing and stories will become part of a public art exhibit that will share, within a community setting, the often private experiences of losing someone we love.
