Murfreesboro, TN - Oaklands Mansion is reaching out to invite members and neighbors of the community who own vintage or antique dollhouses to display them inside the Mansion during the Dollhouse, Diorama, and Miniatures Exhibition. This will take place from 10AM-5PM daily Monday-Friday, April 7-11, 2025. Click here for more details.
In the late 1980’s, Oaklands Mansion was host to an annual Dollhouse Exhibit. We are excited to announce that we are pulling that tradition out of the past this April. During the week of the exhibition, the Mansion will have antique and vintage dollhouses displayed in different rooms. In Maney Hall, guests will find an Exhibition of dollhouses, dioramas, and miniatures made by local artists and hobbyists.
Perhaps you've been looking for that perfect excuse to finish up that dollhouse, diorama, book nook, miniature project or those who have just finished a piece and would like the opportunity to show it to the community.
Again, he event will take place from April 7th-11th, 2025 from 10am-5apm, and creates an opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts to have their dollhouses featured in a prominent historical setting. Guests who purchase a regular tour admission to the Mansion will be able to see these dollhouses displayed in various rooms of the mansion.
The Exhibition is more than a celebration of art and history; it supports a meaningful cause. As a non-profit educational organization, Oaklands Mansion is committed to preserving local history and enriching the community's quality of life. Revenue generated from entry fees and tickets will fuel future community events and initiatives, ensuring that the Mansion continues to be a cornerstone of cultural appreciation and educational opportunities in Murfreesboro.
With the community’s help, we hope to make this a wonderful week-long celebration of an historical craft that is still loved by so many today. To have your vintage or antique dollhouse displayed inside of the museum, please reach out to Jody@oaklandsmansion.org or text 615-218-5368.
