The AIDS Memorial Quilt is considered by many as the largest piece of community folk art in the world. But more than just an art, the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt is actually a tribute to all those who have died from the pandemic HIV/AIDS. With over 50,000 panels, and weighing more than 53 tons with a combined coverage of 1.3 million square feet, the quilt that is currently displayed at the National Mall appears to be getting bigger and bigger – a sorrowful reminder of the disease's fate.
