How do you use clothing?
For millennia, different cultures, communities and individuals around the world have been using clothing in many ways; not just to cover their bodies, but as a form of expression, connection, identity, solidarity and resistance.
The small but thriving 2SLGBTQIA+ community in the Mississippi Valley of Ontario is no stranger to using clothing to signify their identity. Nine participants have sat down with the Mississippi Valley Textile Museum to share their style and journey with clothing.
This exhibition was developed with the support of Digital Museums Canada, an investment program managed by the Canadian Museum of History.
