Wear It Purple

Yarn-bomb your foyer

Whether at school, at work, in the community or online, every Wear It Purple contribution helps create a safer, more inclusive world for LGBTIQA+ young people. The most powerful thing we can do is show up, spark conversations and create spaces where rainbow young people feel seen, supported and celebrated.

This year, we want to yarn-bomb objects in the front foyers of local organisations — a chair, a partition, or anything really! We’ll continue to feature installations at Castlemaine Secondary College and Dhelkaya Health, but we’re excited to expand this project beyond our walls and into workplaces, schools and community settings across the region.

If you can spare some time to knit or crochet a contribution – even just one square – we would love you to participate. If you have a foyer or public access space that could use some inclusive colour, we’d love to hear from you. Call Sherene on 5479 1000 or email lgbtiqa+@castlemainehealth.org.au to find out how you can help.
