And Names Are Added Every Day--sadly!
























Quilt in the Capital 2012




The 48,000 panels of the AIDS Memorial Quilt are a
tangible demonstration of love and loss, life and
determination.

Tens of thousands gathered last week in Washington, DC,
to honor all we have lost and to breathe new life into the
global effort to end AIDS. Below are links to pictures from
each day of the Quilt on the POZ Flickr site. You can find more
photos on our Facebook page.

Thank you to Bristol-Myers Squibb, Merck, Levi Strauss &
Co. and all of our supporters for their tremendous help in
bringing the Quilt back to Washington, DC.

The Quilt on The National Mall
Day 1: Sections of the Quilt were on display on The
National Mall and at more than 50 other locations throughout
the Washington, DC area from July 21-­24, 2012.

The entire AIDS Quilt
Day 2: The entire Quilt was in Washington, DC, for
the first time since 1996. It now weighs more than 54
tons.

Bristol-Myers Squibb Quilt Panel

Day 3: More than 150 Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS)
volunteers came out to help unfold the Quilt, including the
unfurling of this new Quilt panel made by BMS employees and
friends.
