Designed by artists from communities that are frequently under represented in the public space.

Four designs to choose from, each with it's own title and unique reflection of what Inclusion looks like for the artist.

Feeling the FOMO? You can get your very own here & here.
Employers, retailers, people with washrooms: One step solution

 

Why?

• Promote local artists, specifically BIR and 2SLQBTQ+ community members. 
• Raise awareness about period poverty,
• Make it simpler to put period products in washrooms
• Destigmatize conversations about menstruation

   We are doing this to: 

Be deliberately anti-racist

Center the voices of under-represented people

Provide more opportunities to artists from marginalized communities

Encourage conversations about periods and the public space

To destigmatize menstruations

Support all menstruators

So all washrooms can have period products in them

Challenge the status quo

  

Why we say "people who menstruate" and "menstruators": 

Changing The Flow recognizes that not all women menstruate, and that not everyone who menstruates is a woman.

We intentionally use inclusive language such as menstruators or people who menstruate to include girls, trans men, trans boys, non-binary, gender fluid, gender non-conforming individuals and all others who experience menstruation.

We welcome constructive feedback on how we can be better and do more to be inclusive. We encourage members of marginalized communities to call us in if we are not hitting the mark in our actions and our words.
