This set of 2 mini Aboriginal dolls is an adorable inclusion to any learning environment. 

Each doll is lovingly handmade by our artisans. The fabric featured is called Meeting Places ECRU by Josie Cavanagh. 

Meeting places are very important in Aboriginal culture and is where Elders and others meet together to discuss the wellbeing of their community.  These gatherings address one or more interactive insights into the traditional skills, ancient stories and day to day life of the Aboriginal people.  At these meetings the heads of the community will add their cultural experiences by sharing stories told by their ancestors that have been passed down from generation to generation.  Many of these stories are represented through Aboriginal drawings.  These gatherings provide an opportunity for the tribe to come together to celebrate and consolidate their traditional cultural practices and identity.

Various circles in Josie's artwork represent the waterholes and the people sitting around in a circle discussing their community matters.

Designs vary due to handmade nature. 

Made from cotton.
