Traditionally, dolls were created to represent a miniature human form, often used as children\u2019s toys. These artists have transformed the meaning of the plaything by pouring tales and imagination into each doll while emphasizing the fun and whimsical.\nCarolyn Reese, owner of Road to California, has a special interest in this exhibit because two of the dolls in the collection were made by her mother, Marie White. One is a doll Marie created from a photograph of her mother, Oda Anderson, taken in 1934. The second doll, \u201cBlanche\u201d is one that Marie designed, taught classes and also sold patterns. Blanche was created in honor of Blanche Young, a well-known quilter and author, who was the teacher that started Carolyn in the quilting world.\nA free to the public Artist Reception<\/em> is being held Saturday, January 23, 2016 from 5:00 \u20137:00 PM.\nThe Ontario Museum of History & Art is located at 225 S.
