PECO Family Jams: Worry Dolls
Description for PECO Family Jams: Worry Dolls
Worry dolls are traditionally made of wire and colorful scraps of fabrics. They originated in the Mayan highlands of Guatemala and southeastern Mexico. In Mayan tradition, a fretful child could tell their fears and worries to their doll then place it under their pillow. After a good night of sleep, the child would feel better. Join us and make your own worry doll to take home.
Learn about the many pieces of Latin American folk art found in our Art Environment during free tours of our fully mosaicked basement at 12:30, 1:30, 2:30, and 3:30 p.m.
PECO Family Jams are PMG’s family-oriented programs held on the second Sunday of every month between noon and 4:00 p.m. Crafts and basement tours are included with regular admission to PMG. Purchase your regular admission tickets in advance.
