As We See Ourselves Doll Exhibit


A member of Charm City Dolling Club of Maryland posted the above image and indented text regarding the club's month-long Black doll exhibit, As We See Ourselves.

FYI - For Black History Month, the Miller Branch of the Howard County Library System asked my doll club, the Charm City Dolling Club, to create a Black Doll Exhibit that will be on view for the entire month of February.  The exhibit will feature many genres of dolls and is quite interesting and educational about the history of  Black dolls. 

On Saturday, Feb. 11, 2023, we are presenting a Black Doll program that will include Janice Greene, a Griot for the state of Maryland, who will do an enactment of Harriet Tubman.   The program will also feature Goldie Wilson, a recognized Black doll artist, a doll talk by committee chairperson, Deborah Johnson, and comments from Barbara Stone, a representative from the United Federation of Doll Clubs.  See the flyer [above] for details.   Hope that you come to enjoy the exhibit and/or the program and discover the interesting world of Black Doll Collecting!
Members of the club were interviewed recently on WJZ's Where's Marty? about the exhibition. View two segments of the interview below.




So, if you're in the Maryland area, plan to visit the exhibit during the month of February or attend the February 11, 2023, program. See the program schedule and further details on the flyer.
