Palmetto Quilt Guild
Purpose:
* Promote the Art of Quilting
* Provide Our Membership Educational Opportunities in the Quilting Arts
* Provide Community Service & Outreach
Ten times a year (except for August and December) on the third Thursday of the month the Palmetto Quilt Guild meets at 1 PM at the Hilton Head Beach and Tennis Resort, 40 Folly Field Road on Hilton Head Island.
Programs at these meetings feature lectures by nationally known quilters and demonstrations and displays of projects by the membership. Guest lecturers present workshops on specific topics on the Friday following the general meeting.
PQG conducts a variety of quilt related educational programs throughout the year for children and adults, makes and distributes quilts in response to the needs of community to not-for-profit social service agencies, and visits nursing homes and senior centers to “show and tell” their own quilts for the residents. PQG also awards a scholarship annually (usually $1,000) to a local area high school student with an interest in art.
Small groups (Bees) meet at various times, places and frequencies. Many of our members belong to one or more of these groups.
Dues are $35 annually
