This project is a creative and educational arts initiative started by the Punto Urban Art Museum (PUAM)\, a program of North Shore Community Development Coalition (NSCDC). Inspired by the traditional Muñecas sin Rostro made by Liliana Mera Limé\, an artist and pottery worker from the town of Moca in the Dominican Republic\, the project invites individuals to combine creativity and narrative through the creation of a unique paper doll in a few basic steps. As a celebration of heritage\, these stories will represent and help preserve the diverse identities that reside in El Punto. \nREGISTER HERE: https://redefiningheritagefacelessdolls.eventbrite.com \nSince Spring of 2021\, the PUAM and Salem Maritime ran a series of workshops both virtually and in-person at NSCDC’s community space\, Espacio in el Punto. Each workshop involves three components: storytelling\, designing\, and building. The storytelling portion allows participants to answer prompts about their own heritage and how they perceive elements of their heritage through their senses and memories. Participants translate these stories into drawings\, stamps\, words\, and more that they design onto the paper doll template. Lastly\, everyone builds their doll into its proud\, three-dimensional form\, finishing with the iconic faceless head. \nNSCDC’s goal is to grow the Faceless Dolls Project over time as a way to consistently gather\, celebrate\, and honor community stories through mindfulness and craft. It serves as a way for neighbors and friends to get to know each other better. \nThe National Park Service at Salem Maritime National Historic Site partnered with NSCDC to co-create an exhibit featuring dolls and stories by residents of El Punto (Salem’s Point neighborhood). The exhibit celebrates Salem’s global community\, Caribbean connections\, and Latino stories. \nJoin Yinette Guzman\, Design & Placemaking Project Manager for the NSCDC\, and Nora Halloran\, Education Park Ranger for the National Park Service at Salem Maritime and Saugus Ironworks National Historic Sites to learn more about this ongoing initiative\, explore the intersections of art and history\, and how the use of art can help us tell continuing stories of culture\, from past to present. \nFollowing the presentation\, there will be a moderated Q&A. Live captions are available during this presentation. \nAbout the speakers: \nNora Halloran\, Education Park Ranger at Salem Maritime and Saugus Iron Works National Historic Sites.

Originally from California\, Nora has worked in National Parks across the country for 10 years.
