We have many new beginnings in our lives – starting school, going away to college, starting a career, getting married, having children, changing jobs, and moving into a new home. Some of these are significant milestones and often times they are life-changing. The NCMDTM is also in the process of a “New Beginning”. When the museum began, it was to honor Amy Morris and her love of dolls, and over the years, thanks to our generous supporters, it has grown into a much larger focus and this year we are facing our own “New Beginnings” in a new location with new exhibits and new opportunities!

Our luncheon will take place from 9:30 am to 3:00 pm and will feature a hearty lunch along with some presentations focused on historical miniatures, miniature artistry, and miniature collecting. There will also be a “Mini Mart”, a silent auction, a chance to win some special items, and lots of gifts and special treats! For the luncheon, the cost is $80 for museum members and $85.00 for non-members.

All proceeds from the event will go to help continue the work at the new museum location. After the luncheon, join us at the museum for a tour and reception of our new miniature collection along with the dolls and toys that have always been a part of the museum.

Finally, we are planning a new event on Friday, before the luncheon (still in planning stages). We will offer a workshop at the museum in our new activity room with a tentative price of $75. More information coming soon, check back here for updates! Those who are registered for the luncheon will get first choice at signing up for the Friday event when details are released.
