"I'd bring healthy babies into the world and I'd see them later and they'd be psychologically scarred." His purpose for establishing the museum was to "inspire people to have a greater sense of self-pride" his daughter Stephanie Wright Griggs stated to the News Media.
History continues to manifest with Dr. Charles H Wright mission in mind. Sandy's Land Detroit Doll Show is the largest doll show of its kind in the mid-west featuring culture, history and beauty with Dolls of Color. Our goal is to create self pride and to encourage children and their families to "Love the Skin They're In." states founder Sandra Epps.
