Subject: [columbuswomeninblack] does anyone have anything for this?

A group of US feminists (artists, photographers and dancers) is
collaborating on a project to honor Women in Black, Afghan women's
struggle to overcome repression under fundamentalism and to ensure
their rights in a government that may emerge from the current
violence, and the world wide history of women in activism for peace
and human and women's rights.

For the homage to Women in Black aspect, we need black and white
photographs, very clear, or photocopies of photographs, of WIB vigils
as far back as 1988.

The photos will be collaged on a wedding dress, painted black. We
hope the three dresses, which will be mobilized in vigils before
major Washington, DC monuments and buildings, and photographed in
these vigils, will be included in an internationally circulating
exhibition sponsored by Meridian International.

We need the images of WIB vigils BEFORE DECEMBER 30 to be in time to
include on the WIB homage dress.

Please send images to:

1749 P Street, NW
Washington, DC 20036

and include a self addressed padded envelope if you wish your
materials to be returned.

Thank you in advance for helping!
