More About Featured Quilter Karen Dodson
We’re celebrating textiles throughout March at the Horry County Museum! Stop by throughout March to hear from a variety of quilters, plus, you’ll have a chance to win a door prize at every program!
Join us Tuesday, March 12th at 10 AM as local quilter Karen Dodson shares the history and methods behind several quilts from her collection. Quilted items will include bed quilts, wall hangings and placemats. Karen moved to Conway from Connecticut five years ago. Before retiring, she worked as a receptionist at several Connecticut corporations and a pollster at Quinnipiac Polling Institute (CT) and Political Connections (SC). An avid reader and now quilter, her first two quilts were a memory quilt with her late mother’s shirts and a quilt made up of scraps from her late mother-in-law’s fabric leftovers.
The program will be held at the Horry County Museum, located at 805 Main Street, Conway SC. This event is free and open to the public. For more information, call 843-915-5320 or email hcg.museum@horrycountysc.gov. To view a full list of programs, visit our website at Click for Details.

More About Horry County Museum
The Horry County Museum was established in 1979 and opened its doors to the public in 1981. The Museum focuses on the history, pre-history, and natural history of Horry County, S.C., and educates the public about these subjects through exhibits, outreach programs, and events. In 2009, the Museum opened the L. W. Paul Living History Farm. The Farm is a re-creation of life on a one horse family farm between the years of 1900-1955. Visitors to the farm can experience what life was like in a farm community during those years and attend quarterly events at the Farm. In 2014, the Museum moved into the renovated 1905 Burroughs School. The school is on the National Register of Historic Places. The move includes increased exhibits, a freshwater aquarium featured on Animal Planet’s hit reality show “Tanked”, and a 600 seat auditorium that hosts public presentations and programs.
