Our Club logo was created by a local doll artist, who is also the daughter of one of the founding members of the Twickenham Doll Club. |

The Twickenham Doll Club (TDC) was founded on January 27, 1976 by a group of eight local doll enthusiasts. Of the founding members, three are still members of the group today.
The club colors are pink, white and blue, and the club flower is the Betsy McCall Miniature Rose.
In March of 1989, TDC became a member of the United Federation of Doll Clubs. The club is organized in accordance with UFDC guidelines; the Club Bylaws follow UFDC requirements. Click here for information about the United Federation of Doll Clubs, or to find a UFDC club in your area.
The club regularly provides educational displays to the Huntsville Madison County Public library and also donates books that are of interest to doll enthusiasts to the Library annually.
In 2001, TDC unveiled a display, entitled “Peg Wooden Dolls of Hitty & Friends” at the Earlyworks Museum located in downtown Huntsville. Click here for more about the display. In conjunction with the display, a DRC Hitty-kin was donated to the Museum to be used as part of a traveling educational curriculum for grades 2 through 8 throughout the State of Alabama.
As part of our Annual Show and Sale, TDC has sponsored fund raisers (UFDC Helpers) to support local children’s charities. Over the years, thousands of dollars have been raised to help the disadvantaged youth of our community. |
