Get ready to embark on a swashbuckling adventure at ODACA Day 2025! This year's theme, "Shiver Me Timbers, Pirates!" promises two hours of non-stop fun, fabulous dolls, and pirate-themed excitement.
Why Pirates? By 1660, Virginia's coast was crawling with pirates! The governor even claimed the waters were so pirate-infested that safe passage was nearly impossible. Legendary buccaneers like Stede Bonnet, Ben Hornigold, and the infamous Blackbeard once ruled the Chesapeake Bay. Even oyster piracy carried on into the 1950s! So what better way to celebrate this rich history than with a lighthearted pirate twist?
What’s in Store? Prepare to be amazed by dazzling luncheon favors, captivating table centerpiece dolls by renowned doll artist Sandra Wright Justiss, and delightful cloth souvenir dolls created by the talented Cat Woody — all embracing the pirate theme!
The excitement doesn’t stop there! Our featured speaker, Sandra Wright Justiss, will share a fascinating talk inspired by the theme. Don’t miss this chance to hear her insights and dive deeper into the world of dolls.
Win Treasure for Your Collection! ODACA artists are generously donating original dolls for the exciting Helper drawing. Purchase tickets and drop them in the boxes next to the dolls you’d love to win. Plus, one lucky guest at each table will take home a stunning centerpiece doll — no ticket purchase required!
