In September 1915, artist and author Johnny Gruelle patented a character who became a household name: Raggedy Ann. During a time of global war, he wanted to inspire “love, kindness and good morals” with his creation. Whether you’re a kid or a kid at heart, join Museum and Memorial educators for a family-friendly craft and reading from one of the first Raggedy Ann stories published in 1918 for young audiences.
Hosted in partnership with The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures and in conjunction with the exhibition The Little War.
