On May 18th, Taro’s Origami Studio will be hosting its first origami design challenge and competition at the Brooklyn Children’s Museum which has generously partnered with us and offered us use of their space for this exciting event.
The event features a fun-filled afternoon planned to introduce and develop paper-folding skills to help expand a child’s creativity by taking them through the steps of designing origami models of their very own. A theme will be selected on the day of the competition and each child will be walked through each step of the design process — from concept, test- ing and prototyping, to the final stages.
No experience necessary, just an eager mind. Events designed for all proficiency levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced folders.
