Mrs. McKay’s 3rd-grade class was studying Native American Kachina dolls and used repurposed paper tubes and found objects to create their own in Matt Aucoin’s art class at Lothrop. Kachina dolls are a tradition among the Hopi people who live primarily in Arizona today. The dolls represent the immortal beings that act as messengers between the human and spirit worlds.
