Guests will have hands-on experience creating three-dimensional objects from single sheets of paper. More than 40 experts from local and national origami clubs will teach a variety of different folds for people of all experience levels, including animals, geometric forms and moveable origami. Japanese tea and treats will be served.
Admission is $7 for adults, $6 for seniors, $5 for Japanese Garden members, $3 for garden members’ children 12 and under and $5 for general admission children. Prices include origami paper.
