Poetry Readings: The Doll Collection

Contact: 
Help Desk at 986-1047, ext. 3 or warref@rcls.org
Age Group: 
Adult
Teen

From Raggedy Ann to GI Joe, Barbie to teddy bears, dolls shape our thinking about the body, gender, race and class.  Dolls influence our memory and understanding of childhood.  Symbols of perfection, they both comfort and terrify.  Join us for readings that will take you back to your experiences.  Ten poets will read their poems and discuss the dolls that inspired them. 

Be a part of our doll display in March!  Share a favorite doll from your childhood.  Contact Kathleen Georgalas at 986-1047, ext. 5.
