National AIDS Memorial Quilt
Selections of the AIDS Memorial Quilt will be on display at the Annenberg Health Sciences Building. December 4-8, 2023

As the largest community arts project in the world, the AIDS Memorial Quilt is a teaching tool to help educate people about HIV/AIDS and its continued impact today, and to remember the 700,000 U.S. lives lost in the four decades since the first cases were reported. Quilt displays help support local HIV/AIDS service organizations and LGBTQ+ centers, and raise awareness about the issues of health and social justice.
