Ever wondered where bees live? Join us on March 30th, 2025, at 12 p.m. for a fun-filled event where we’ll build and paint our Air BeeNBee, a cozy new home for solitary bees, right here at the Lincoln Museum & Cultural Centre!  Whether you're a bee lover or just curious about these incredible pollinators, this event is a great way to learn and help support local bees!

What’s Happening:
Noon - 1 p.m. Paint the Bee Hotel Frame: Help us paint the frame of our Air BeeNBee—a bee hotel designed specifically for solitary bees, which need safe, dry places to nest and raise their young. All ages can join in on the fun and add their own colorful touch to this important project!

1 - 2 p.m. Learn About Bee Homes: Discover how Honey Bees live in large colonies and how they’re different from the solitary bees that will make their nests in our permanent Air BeeNBee. Learn why providing a safe home for solitary bees is so important! 

2 - 3 p.m. Install the Air BeeNBee: Be a part of the installation process and watch as we set up the new bee hotel for our solitary bee residents.
