Each session will have a theme highlighting a specific Japanese holiday or celebration. Participants of all ages can enjoy mastering this art form through three designs of various difficulty. From beginners to advanced practitioners, there is an origami pattern for everyone.


November Theme: Traditional Shapes

November 11 is Origami no Hi or Origami Day in Japan. Established in 1980, this unofficial holiday honors the ancient Japanese art of creating intricate objects and complex shapes out of square pieces of paper.

The word origami comes from the combination of two Japanese words: ori, meaning to fold, and kami, meaning paper.

As we celebrate both Origami Day, we will be folding three traditional origami shapes, a cup, a balloon, and a box. The three (3) origami patterns ranging from beginner to advanced are available for participants to enjoy.
