The Antigua and Barbuda Heritage Quilt
In memory of Mary Lewis Peterson
1914 — 1999
Inspired by the oral histories recorded in Symbol of Courage by Sir Keithlyn Smith, this textile is a communal repository of memory. Thirty contributors from the Summer Reading Project — at home in Antigua and Barbuda and throughout the diaspora — have stitched their inheritances into these squares.
