Title supplied by cataloger.
Panels of the seven-ton patchwork quilt, which memorializes those who have died of AIDS, hang from the ceiling and have been placed on the floor inside Pauley Pavilion on the UCLA campus in preparation for a fund-raising event. At the time this photograph was taken in April 1988, more than 800 volunteers had worked on the Names Project quilt.
