Welcome to the world of doll collecting!
The Doll Collectors Club of NSW is for anyone who makes, restores, dresses, or collects dolls and doll-related items of all types and eras – from antique, or vintage to modern. Whether your collection is porcelain or plastic, ragdolls or high fashion models, childhood dolls or a lifetime hobby, the Club is a place to meet like-minded collectors and share a mutual interest in doll collecting.
Visitors are welcome to our meetings, or when you are ready for more, membership includes the quarterly Club newsletter and allows entry into Club competitions and special events throughout the year.
All are welcome to our annual Doll Fair as well as regular displays, workshops, and talks we present to further educate members, visitors and our local community in the history and art of doll making and associated creative activities.
