| The Porcelain Dollmakers Business
Association of Oklahoma (PDBAO) is a not-for-profit organization
committed to promoting the art of porcelain doll making. The PDBAO
consists of professional porcelain doll makers in Oklahoma who volunteer
their time to provide the yearly event known as the Okla. City Doll
Show. Their mission is to encourage the continuation of porcelain doll making through the following areas: Education: Each year talented instructors are sought after to teach the most current techniques and to provide creative ideas and projects in the areas of doll making, accessories or just-for-fun projects. Competition: The doll competition encourages people to become the best doll makers they can be by competing against themselves. It allows doll makers to receive professional feedback on their work and to receive recognition of their achievements through various awards. Providing Resources: The sales room is designed to offer products and resources used in the process of making beautiful porcelain dolls. Dealers come from all over to bring their wares for you to see in person and to establish relationships with their customer. Banquet: The Banquet brings everyone together to celebrate the love of doll making while recognizing fellow doll makers for their achievements in the Doll Competition. Friendship: Together, and only together, can we support one another in the pursuit of happiness. The Show allows us to meet new and old friends and to have fun with others who share the same passion for porcelain doll making. |
