someplace extraordinary……….

Today I made a trip over to the Harrodsburg area for a pro call and to scout the area for photography opportunities for mine and Jim Begley’s HDR workshop in April. I stopped by to check out a place called The Great American Dollhouse Museum. I was stunned by both the
museums wonderful pieces and the lady that is the curator, Lori Kagan Moore. Lori developed an interest in doll houses and doll house furniture as a young girl, several years ago she opened the museum. This is not just a collection of finely crafted houses, people and furnishings, it’s a trip through our history. The collection leads you through a fascinating journey of America. All kinds of architecture and lifestyles of the past and present are represented. All levels of the art are also on display including rooms like the one above, crafted to the most infinite detail. This is an exciting journey for anyone interested in master craftsman and history. 6,000 Square feet of impressive dollhouses (200) and countless miniatures are incredible, but Lori is evens more impressive. Her vast knowledge of the collection and it’s historic significance in even more amazing. A very nice, and gifted lady, who has given us a wonderful gift…….

I know our photographers are going to love capturing their favorites. I can highly recommend this wonderful museum to anyone traveling to the Danville, Kentucky area. In fact the museum is worth a trip all by itself. I hope you enjoy some of the miniature scenes below, they are a small fraction
of the vast display…….
