[RP TownTalk] Join the Doll Study Club

[Ken Laureys]

​
Join the Doll Study Club for Fun & Profit



Learn how to make your very own doll by joining the Riverdale Park Doll
Study Club. The club is free and meets at Town Hall. Join now to attend the
club’s free week-long Summer Camp in June.

Club Founder Emily Fanning shows girls how to make their own dolls,
clothing, dollhouses and furnishings. Volunteer Jennifer Fairfax teaches
knitting and other fabrics arts. Local artists show the girls how to make
miniature paintings for their dollhouse, write a story for their doll, and
use a sewing machine to make doll outfits.

One of the Club’s primary goals is to teach girls entrepreneurial skills by
running a real-life business. Club members sell & keep their monies from
their own handmade knitted scarves, bracelets, chokers and ornaments vended
at local art festivals.

This year, Club members are excited about launching a new line of 10”
*Children’s
Fine Art Dolls* as a business venture. They will also make and sell a  4.5”
Hitty Doll and a 2.5” Baby Hitty Doll.  All proceeds from these dolls will
be reinvested back into the business.

The club needs adult volunteers for all sorts of roles, so please pitch in!
For further information about joining, volunteering or donating, contact
