The Bronx Council on the Arts hosted a two-hour workshop emphasizing how to craft an art doll on Saturday, March 3 at Owen Dolen Recreation Center. Figurative sculptor Cinnamon Willis taught participants how to build their dolls’ framework and sculpt them into incredible works of art.

Dollmakers-in-the-making made their unique playthings by hand.
