The AIDS Memorial Quilt is the largest on-going community arts project in the world. Each of the over 42,960 colorful panels in the Quilt was made to remember the life of a person lost to AIDS. Panels are 3 feet by 6 feet -- the size of a human grave. As the epidemic claims more lives, the Quilt continues to grow. The Quilt stands for more than the tens of thousands of people whose names are sewn into the fabric. It stands, as well, for the sorrow, anger, love and hope of people who make panels.
