Wear it Purple Day

Would your service like to make a  Condom Couture art piece for *Wear It Purple day on the 26th August 2022?

We are seeking expressions of interest from services who work with young people in the Illawarra & Shoalhaven

to create a 2022 condom art piece. Scroll down for details.

* Wear It Purple Day is all about celebrating and supporting young LGBTQIA+ people, and challenging societal attitudes to help shape a better world for us all to live in.

We provide:

  • A mannequin
  • Condoms
  • $100 Spotlight gift voucher
  • If the outfit is robust enough, we can take it on tour, acknowledging your creative work OR you can keep it. Totally your choice!

Your service and the group of young people provide:

  • Design
  • Development
  • Construction
  • From previous years’ experience we recommend about 8-10 hours being the average time for completion.

With over 5,000 views, watch our most popular YouTube video “The Making of Connie Condom Dress” by the Northern Illawarra Youth Project in 2014.

Email Jennifer.Farinella@health.nsw.gov.au by Friday 12th August with your design plan.
