Welcome to the 66th UFDC Annual Convention,
“A Dream Come True”, in Kansas City, Missouri. The largest city in Missouri,
Kansas City is known as the “Heartland of America” and its residents take pride in
their spirit, hospitality and famous barbecue. KC is the home to the UFDC
Headquarters and Museum. For UFDC members, the dream of a world-class
museum has been realized and the highlight of convention will be exclusive tours to
our newly renovated museum
Our host hotel, the Kansas City Marriott Downtown, is located in the heart of
Kansas City's Power & Light District. This vibrant eight-block neighborhood links
the Convention Center to the Sprint Center, with more than 45 unique and
captivating shops, restaurants, bars and entertainment venues easily accessed by
walking. Our hotel consists of two towers connected by a walkway. The Marriott
Tower houses our seminars, workshops, programs, meal events and exhibits. The
Muehlebach Tower including the historic Muehlebach Hotel houses the UFDC
Salesroom and Helper room.
Our convention journal, edited by Lynn Murray, is filled with interesting articles by
experts in the doll world and gorgeous photography which will include many of the
dolls from the UFDC museum collection. Our souvenir doll artist, Susan Fosnot,
has designed a very special doll that will delight you. Our special exhibits are
unique and inspiring. The UFDC salesroom will offer attendees the opportunity not
only to shop for new treasures, but to learn from our always accommodating dealers
who feature the best on offer in antique, vintage and modern dolls as well as dolls
by some of the most talented doll artists working today.
Ticketed meal events help support convention expenses and give attendees an
opportunity to enjoy fun-filled programs and take home a limited edition doll. This
year’s events include some new presenters as well as old favorites. Ticketed
seminars and workshops are available to continue educational pursuits. Free
programs are offered throughout the week by presenters who volunteer their
expertise on a variety of topics, providing an enjoyable learning experience. A
tentative list of Doll Dialogue topics, as well as Gatherings for special interest
groups are included in this booklet. These popular events are free and all are
encouraged to bring dolls to share.
This booklet is designed to give you a tentative overview of convention and is
subject to changes. Please take the time to read carefully and consider participating
in special activities that have been carefully planned to enhance your convention
experience. Please complete and mail in your registration form no later than May

I am looking forward to seeing you in Kansas City!

A special charm or tie tack is designed each year as a token of appreciation

these mementos. There are a wide variety of volunteer jobs available. UFDC
appreciates the members who volunteer their time during a busy convention
week.
Convention Mementos

Supply Booth also offers you the opportunity to purchase UFDC pins for
members and club officers, and educational and fundraising items. The
