About Our Workshops

Gullah Keepsakes offers a variety of hands on interactive cultural workshop experiences.

Step into a world of storytelling, creativity, and cultural discovery with Gullah Keepsakes’ Gullah Doll Making Workshops, led by Gullah artist Ms. Gina. This 90 minute immersive, hands-on experience brings audiences together for an educational journey through handmade Black doll history and the story of how the Gullah Doll came to be.

Through engaging storytelling and artistic demonstration, Ms. Gina shares how every detail of her Gullah Dolls carries meaning. From the selection of fabrics and materials to the thoughtful details of their adornments, each element opens a conversation about African artistry, resilience, identity, and the traditions passed from one generation to the next. Her dolls celebrate the beauty of Gullah Geechee heritage while leaving a legacy of joy in every cultural art piece.

As the stories unfold, participants become part of the creative experience by making their own doll artwork with Ms. Gina’s guidance. Learning and artmaking happen together, giving guests an opportunity to connect what they hear with what they create. Each participant’s artwork becomes a personal keepsake of the experience—a reminder of the stories shared, the heritage celebrated, and the joy of creating by hand.

The workshop also includes an opportunity to shop original artwork and cultural keepsakes from Gullah Keepsakes, followed by a Q&A session with Ms. Gina. Guests can ask questions, reflect on their discoveries, experiences, and learn more about her artistic process and the inspiration behind her work.

Whether presented at a museum, cultural center, school, community gathering, or private event, this workshop invites audiences to connect through art and storytelling while celebrating the lasting legacy of Gullah Geechee creativity.

Come ready to listen, learn, create, and leave with a keepsake—and a story—to cherish.
