National Association of Miniature Enthusiasts

About Us

    

  •  Cleveland Miniaturia Society, Inc. (CMS) was founded in Cleveland, Ohio on April 18, 1971 as a non-profit organization.
  •  It is the second oldest scale miniature club in the world.
  •  We are a Charter Club of the National Association of Miniature Enthusiasts (NAME C-066).  
  •  We provide a supportive and social atmosphere to promote interest in scaled miniature dollhouses, furnishings and accessories.
  • Our members represent all skill levels, from collector to beginner to advanced artisan.
  • Membership is opened to adults age 18 and older,  although consideration is given to younger persons when accompanied by an adult.
  • We offer opportunities for participation in activities and classes to learn and to share individual talents and knowledge in 1", 1/2" & 1/4" scale miniatures. Monthly meetings feature a project taught by an experienced member to highlight a skill or technique.
  • Activities include picnics, holiday parties, visits to view members' collections, trips to museums, specialty shops, miniature shows.
  • Members have also restored dollhouses for the Western Reserve Historical Society and Clague Museum.
  • Members have constructed a scaled miniature operating suite to help hospitalized children understand and become more comfortable with their hospital stay.
  • Members have exhibited at the Cleveland Home & Flower show, the Cleveland Garden Center, Festival of Trees, the Cuyahoga County Fair and the Shaker Historical Society Museum.


Annual Dollhouse and Miniature Show and Sale Cancelled

  • Cleveland Miniaturia Society, Inc. (CMS) was known for sponsoring an annual dollhouse show and sale in mid October. Unfortunately, we are no longer able to continue this tradition. Our club continues to teach and share the art of scaled miniatures at its monthly meetings (excluding January, August & December.).
  •  Begun in Cleveland, Ohio in 1971, it was the longest continuous scale miniature show in the United States.
  •  Scale miniature artisans, manufacturers and dealers from around the country used to  present their products for purchase and enjoyment.
  • Although we can  no longer have an annual  raffle at a show, CMS continues to make a donation to a local charitable organization.
  • Organizations benefiting from this raffle in the past have included: Ronald Mcdonald House, Make-a-Wish Foundation, Providence House, Aluminum Cans for Burned Children's Camp, Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital, Achievement Center for Children Camp Cheerful, Cleveland Foodbank, Cleveland Animal Protective League, WAGS 4 WARRIORS, and services for Domestic Violence victims in Cleveland in 2017.
