Founded in August 2005, Bee Inclined Quilters began with just four quilters for the purpose of promoting the art of quilting and giving back to the community. Over the years, they've donated to such worthwhile organizations as Sierra Community House and the Reno Initiative for Shelter and Equality (RISE), as well as causes the likes of the victims of the recent Lahaina fires (12 quilts), victims of the Joplin, Missouri tornado (37 quilts), and several quilts to Japan following the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami. The group sent quilts to New Jersey after Hurricane Sandy, and most recently the Bee Inclined Quilters made baby quilts for Casa de Vida (home for unwed teen mothers).
The Bee Inclined Quilters meet the third Thursday of each month at the Incline Village Library Community Room.
