Women’s Centre Love Your Body Week: Bust Casting

November 16, 2022 @ 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM EST

Bust casting is a creative and fun way to celebrate bodies. We will be making plaster casts of our busts in a private, safe and body positive environment. There will also be discussion about sexualization of breasts, the ways in which feminization of breasts perpetuates transphobia and body image. Two days after the initial event, participants will be able to paint their bust and take it home.

This event will take place on November 16 from 7-9 pm in SLC 2102.

**NOTE: This event is exclusive to non-cisgender men. The treatment surrounding breasts/busts vary greatly among different groups and gender identities. The Women’s Centre will ensure that this event and experience acknowledges that and will create an environment that is safe and supportive towards all such experiences.

Participants will need to get topless, and the door will be locked once the casting process begins to ensure no one is able to walk in and disrupt the safe environment. Participants are also encouraged to wear clothes that they do not mind getting dirty. Bust casting is a messy but worthwhile activity!

WUSA recognizes that much of the work we do happens on the traditional territory of the neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. The land we work on is covered by the Between the Lakes Treaty, No. 3 (1792), and this region is still home to First Nation, Inuit, and Metis peoples from across Turtle Island. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work, play and live on this land and acknowledge that it is our collective responsibility to make our community and world a better place for all people. We acknowledge that educational institutions have not been a safe space for Indigenous students in the past and we continue to work to ensure that this is no longer the case. The work towards truth and reconciliation is ongoing, please do your part and take time to learn more:
