Each Saturday morning through
November from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, volunteers from the Solano AIDS
Coalition will be available in downtown Vallejo, Calif., at Sacramento and
Georgia Streets to help individuals make quilt squares in memory of loved ones
lost to HIV/AIDS.
According to Quilt Project Event
Organizer Isabel James, individuals can create a quilt square at the booth or
take a square home, decorate it, and bring it back. Individuals also can
request that volunteer artists make a quilt square for them in honor of a loved
one.
The coalition is seeking volunteers
as well as donations for the quilt project, including all supplies needed to
create the squares. Project volunteers will assemble the squares into a quilt
that will be displayed and may become part of The Names Project–AIDS Memorial
Quilt.
For further information, contact
Solano AIDS Coalition Director Maria Saucedo at (707) 450–5861.
