As a part of the In and Out Festival, GCN in partnership with EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum and Queer Culture Ireland presents ‘The Story of Ireland’s AIDS Quilts’. This interview series sees Han Tiernan and Judith Finlay interview activists involved with the Irish Names Project and Ireland’s AIDS Quilts, along with those still fighting against HIV/AIDS across the country.
The first interview in this series is with Mary Shannon‘s family. Mary Shannon spearheaded the Irish AIDS Quilts movement, and her family offered key support which allowed for its impact and success.
