Yami Yamauchi, internationally recognized origami artist, has given lessons on the art of Japanese paper folding at previous years’ festivals at CSULB.
Community members can discover why people have been enchanted by the art of origami— Japanese paper folding— for centuries as the Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) hosts its annual Origami Festival on Sunday, July 12, from 10am to 4pm.
Guests will have hands-on experience creating a three-dimensional object from a single sheet of paper. More than 40 experts from local and national origami clubs will teach a variety of different types of origami for people of all experience levels. As one of the most economical art forms, origami is a craft that can be produced from the recycling bin.
Admission is $7 for adults, $6 for seniors, $5 for Japanese Garden
members and free for children 12 and younger.
