TRIANGLE FIRE MEMORIAL QUILT on Display at The Evergreens Cemetery

The Evergreens Cemetery will host an exhibition on the Triangle Fire Memorial Quilt, marking the 107th anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. Robin Berson, a boardmember with the Remember the Triangle Fire Coalition, has painstakingly created a poignant memorial quilt as a way to keep alive the memories of these workers as well as the fire’s legacy of reform.

The quilt will be on display in the office lobby; follow the signs from the Bushwick Avenue entrance. The office is open Monday to Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. 

On March 23rd at 2:30 PM there will be a wreath-laying ceremony at the cemetery’s Triangle Fire Memorial to the Unknowns.
