Megan Christo is the Collections & Public Engagement Officer working on the Play! Project, which explores objects relating to play in the museum's collection including toys, games and musical instruments.

This talk will focus on her research into the museum's collection of dolls and our partnerships with originating communities that are allowing us to uncover the stories behind these dolls and their makers.
