Todos los muñecos tienen una historia que contar. Conoce las historias detrás de las muñecas negras de nuestra exposición Black Dolls. También, aprenderás sobre los muñecos más populares de latinoamérica, como las muñecas mazahuas (México), los muñecos quitapenas (Guatemala), las wayunkeras (Venezuela y Colombia), entre otros. Además, aprenderás a crear tu propio muñeco de papel que esperamos se convierta en tu juguete favorito.
Every doll tells a story. Get to know the story behind the dolls in our Black Dolls exhibition. During this program, you will learn about the most popular dolls in Latin America, like the mazahua dolls (Mexico), nightmare catchers (Guatemala), wayunqueras (Venezuela and Colombia), and many more. In addition, you will design and create your own paper doll—which we hope will become your favorite toy!
Please note that this is not a drop-off program—child participants must be accompanied by an adult.
