    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Participants of the We the People Community Quilt project were asked to answer a number of questions regarding their quilt square. <br />
1. What does your square represent? Background fabric- snow. Bright colored fabric for the people to represent the energy and resilience of people during the storm. <br />
2. Why did you choose these symbols? During the Blizzard 77&#039; I was a college freshman. My mother at the time was a nurse at Buffalo General Hospital. She was at the hospital when the storm struck. She spent the duration of the storm at the hospital caring for her patients. I remember taking the sled to the grocery store to get groceries for ourselves and the neighbors, carrying the groceries home on our sled. <br />
3. What do you hope viewers notice or feel?  Connections of people during the storm and its aftermath. Resilience of people in adversity.]]></dcterms:description>
