Nesting Doll Making

  • East Greenwitch Library 82 Pierce St. East Greenwich, RI USA (map)

This workshop is a fun, lively, creative and relaxed experience, which can be enjoyed by children and adults alike, regardless of this artistic skill. The classic Russian Matryoshka is a set of wooden dolls of the same shape but different sizes which are placed inside one another. It may seem like these nesting dolls have been around forever but in fact the first Matryoshka doll was made only in 1890. It was pained to look like a young girl in a peasant dress holding a black chicken. The artist will show you the traditional Matryoshka decoration, which you can either copy or take inspiration from to create your own unique design.
