https://shngown.com/The Say Her Name Memorial Gown is a stunning, woven art piece that illustrates the vibrant boldness of Black women while providing searing focus on the violence, horror, and terror that has plagued Black women as an inexplicable consequence of America’s racist DNA. Designed by award-winning director and costumer KJ Gilmer, the Say Her Name Memorial Gown will be on display at the University Art Gallery from September 14 to September 24, 12-4 pm.
Pitt community members can visit during gallery hours without appointment. The general public can make appointments through uag@pitt.edu
The Say Her Name Memorial Gown is one of the four inaugural projects of Pitt’s Black Lives in Focus initiative.
