Mask up with a pattern from Cooper Hewitt's collection! This protective mask is made of 2 layers of 100% cotton and a removable 5-layered PM2.5 activated carbon filter with two layers of melt-blown polypropylene. The mask adapts to different head sizes with adjustable straps and features an integrated metal nose-piece to ensure a snug fit.
This pattern is based on a bògòlanfini textile from Mali shown in the exhibit Willi Smith: Street Couture.
In April 2020, VIDA donated funds to provide 500,896 meals to communities in need, in partnership with SF-Marin Food Bank and Food Bank For New York. They continue to provide relief, directing their donations to help get masks into the hands of essential workers, first responders, veterans, single mothers struggling to make ends meet, and organizations serving victims of domestic violence and abuse.
