Sexual Assault Awareness Month 2026 Community Denim Link Project
Did you know that art is part of the movement to end sexual and domestic violence? Art and activism are linked, and creating art can be therapeutic for people who have experienced sexual violence.
For Sexual Assault Awareness Month 2026, Fairfax County Domestic and Sexual Violence Services is collecting denim links created by the community with the theme of “Until Everyone is Safe.” The finished link will be displayed in Fairfax County Public Libraries in 2026.
Prompt
“Until Everyone is Safe, I will...”
Use the thread, fabrics, markers, and embellishments available to create a depiction of what you pledge to make a safer world where everyone can live peacefully. There is no right or wrong way to create art, so feel free to use lines, shapes, colors, images and words!
