 ong></p>\n<p>Our experiences of COVID-19 have been and continue to be uneq
 ual. Some people have lost jobs\, some work overtime in harm&rsquo\;s way\
 , some have died\, and others have recovered. We are facing the global pan
 demic here - in our community. Wearing a mask is one way we show care for 
 those around us. We wear them to protect others.</p>\n<p>We are making a c
 ommunity quilt based on the form of a mask! This is an opportunity to come
  together&mdash\;while apart&mdash\;and make something that will remain as
  a memorial\, acknowledge inequality\, and act as a starting point for hea
 ling. Each quilt block answers the question: From when the pandemic starte
 d\, back in March 2020\, until now\, what has changed the most in your lif
