A "Dollhouse Takeover" is happening at the Kemerer Museum of Decorative Arts this fall. The collection spans three centuries and is coming out of the museum's vaults for the first time. It is a project 11 years in the making.  My guest is Lindsey Jancay, VP & Managing Director, and we talk all about this special event and the Elizabeth Johnston Prime Dollhouse Collection featured in "Art of the Dollhouse".

Join me in a world where Barbie has as much attitude (mostly bad) and sass as she does beauty and style. That's the funny & fabulous world of Matthew Keith from Dolls On The Brain (FB & Instagram). Matthew's tongue in cheek "slap scenes" and humorous definitions have gained him a large & devoted following. Matthew discusses his filming process including how he actually "auditions" various Barbies for roles in his videos, does wardrobe tests, & more. Grab yourself a coffee and get ready to dish about Barbie, her glam retro wardrobe, and her misadventures.
