Description

Students of the costume and design department at Texas Christian University work on a quilt for the NAMES Project Memorial commemorating those who have died of AIDS. Lori Van Zandt, right, and an unidentified student are seen here working on the quilt with the quotation from Shakespeare's Hamlet, "There's rosemary, that's for remembrance. Pray. Love. Remember." The 6-foot square quilt will be added to the national memorial quilt, set to be dedicated at the U.S. Institute for Theatre Technology conference on April 14, 1990 and will then be exhibited in various cities around the country. The quilt is fashioned after the dropped-down stage curtains used in vaudeville theater and will carry the names of members of the theater institute who have died from AIDS.
