Corn Husk Doll Making

Bucksport Historical Society Museum 92 Main St, Bucksport, ME

Corn husk dolls are some of the earliest toys created by Native Americans and later adopted by European settlers. See this traditional craft by corn husk doll maker Betty La Forge. Although a common toy throughout the 19th century, this craft is not often seen today. This demonstration is being done by a member of the Bucksport Historical Society at their museum, located at the historic railway station.
