Let's Fold! Origami for Everyone
|
|
| |
|
1 – 2:30 for adults
3 – 4:30 for kids (6 with an adult) and older
Yulan “Mimmy” San, folk artist and teacher, presents the timeless tradition of origami—the art of folding paper. Classic origami is made by hand from one sheet of paper folding and folding, 2 times or even 200, transforming paper into an array of friendly objects both practical and charming. Endlessly fascinating, origami offers a bit of wonder—
Imagine a single sheet of paper, folding and folding, transforming bit by bit into a bunny or a bird, or maybe a frog, even an elephant, or a heart, shirt or bowtie. The possibilities are endless. Wow!
Nearly 2000 years old, origami is among the oldest art forms. Originally intended for spiritual ritual and reflection, its range of use has grown. Paper folding today is used in advertising, as well as in math, science, and medicine. It benefits arthritis symptoms, quitting smoking, and recovery from injury or illness. It can reduce stress and alleviate the blahs.
Cultural, educational, and playful, origami has broad appeal. Young and old alike enjoy its many benefits and rewards—
· promotes creative thinking and imagination
· develops manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination
· enhances visual awareness
· improves memory skills
· builds self-esteem
· leaves you feeling light-hearted and happy
Come join us for an afternoon of good fun and good company. Free of charge and supplies will be provided. Supported by the Friends of Forbes Library. Limited seating so please RSVP to Lisa – 413-587-1017, stop by the main desk or email ldowning@forbeslibrary.org.
