AIDS Quilt Comes to Clark Center in April

After several months of hard work by the AIDS Memorial Quilt Committee, UMass Boston has been selected by the Names Project Foundation to display the Names Project AIDS Memorial Quilt. From April 23-25, the Quilt will be on display in the Clark Athletic Center. The exhibit will be open to the public, and several events are scheduled while the Quilt is at UMass Boston.

The AIDS Quilt in its entirety is now 44,000 panels. The portion of the Quilt we will have on display is 960 panels. The panels will be regional, representing AIDS victims from the New England area. If anyone on campus would like to request a particular panel for the display, please contact Steven Cicirelli at 7-7983.
