The Ugly Dolls workshop invites participants to create their own doll in a way that prioritises play and personal expression over technical skill and polished outcomes. In this workshop, you can create an emotional support doll, the worst version of yourself doll, the glam-rock lead singer version of yourself doll, or even just something ugly for someone you love. The focus is on fun and catharsis, as well as a judgement-free approach where imperfection is not only accepted but encouraged as part of the creative process. Get as ugly and scrappy as you want.
We will be supplying all necessary materials, but if you’d like even more customisation, please bring any little trinkets/buttons/patches that you might incorporate into your doll. You can also bring 2 old socks which can be turned into an ugly doll, but this is not compulsory.
