Get started in the ancient Japanese art of paper folding! Origami is a relaxing and enjoyable way to de-stress and explore your creative side. Students of the art form learn to produce attractive and intriguing three-dimensional models, typically from only a single sheet of square paper in the way of materials. As a rule, neither scissors nor glue are used. Origami paper (which is provided as part of your course) is usually coloured or patterned on one side and white on the other, and is generally thinner than ordinary writing or printer paper. Models are built up from a succession of individual folds, which, while generally not difficult in isolation, do require concentration and attention to detail. It’s easy to get started in Origami, and course participants who have the aptitude and patience should be able to produce a number of pieces during the session.
