About Us
The North Somerset LGBT+ Forum is honoured to invite you to the Winter Gardens Pavilion to view the UK AIDS Memorial Quilt, with kind permission of the UK AIDS Memorial Quilt Conservation Partnership.The UK AIDS Memorial Quilt is an emotive and irreplaceable piece of British Social History. In total there are 48 twelve foot by twelve foot panels, each comprising up to 8 smaller panels. Each panel is approximately 4m sq. and commemorates someone who died of AIDS and has been lovingly made by their friends, lovers or family.
For the first time in over fifteen years, they will be open to the public outside of London. With each panel we hope to raise awareness of AIDS and the support available in North Somerset, as well as commemorate those who lost their lives during the AIDS pandemic.
The event runs as follows:
Monday 2nd May: 12pm - 4pm
Tuesday 3rd - Thursday 5th May: 10am - 4pm
Admission free
Press Preview: Monday 2nd May 10.30am - 12pm
