“Against My Will” Project

In commemoration of sexual assault awareness month, Artist Traci Molloy has collaborated with Castleton students, faculty, and staff to anonymously share stories of sexual harassment and assault. Molloy hopes to bring awareness to the seriousness of these experiences. Traci Molloy is a Brooklyn-based artist, collaborator, and educator. Molloy creates large-scale, multi-media collaborations with young adults across the nation who have experienced trauma. Five of her collaborations with young adults are in the Permanent Collection at the National September 11th Memorial and Museum. *Sponsored by the Vermont State University Center for Social Justice and Trauma-Informed Care and the Bowse Health Trust*
