Origami – the art of paper folding

An introduction to the absorbing and impressive world of Origami with Steve

 

 

 

This 1.5 hour workshop will introduce you to the ancient art of Origami, and a modern twist on it…

You will be taken through the basics with the construction of a Christmas tree, followed by the group working together to produce a piece of ‘dimensional origami’ – a mind-bending rainbow ring that can be twisted inside out

You will leave with basics of paper folding, and confidence to expand this craft at home (and share with others): we’ll have origami paper, some worksheets and YouTube links to set you in the right direction
