AIDS Quilt Panels
Sections of the AIDS QUILT from the National AIDS Memorial in San Francisco hang in the Sanctuary throughout June. This is part of the National AIDS Memorial’s efforts to bring the Quilt to communities across the United States to raise greater awareness and education about HIV/AIDS and to remember those lost to the pandemic. This year the panels honor people including Rudolf Nureyev and Robert Reed. Display of the Quilt is generously underwritten by an ally of Marble’s LGBTQ+ community.
