Clothed with protection catwalk
Run time: 12.30 – 14.30
Catwalk performance at 12.30 and 14.00
'Just as clothing protects us from the outside world, so vaccinations create a layer of protection from infection.'
Created by artist Luke Jerram, in collaboration with Chrissie Jones (Faculty of Medicine, University of Southampton), this catwalk showcases the talents of 10 Ugandan fashion designers. Each piece was made to promote the benefits of vaccination in pregnant women across Africa, and highlight that vaccinations protect both mother and baby.
Strut down to Southampton City Art Gallery to discover the artistry, innovation and community spirit behind these iconic outfits.
This event is part one of a four-part creative event series exploring lifelong health.
