Folding Sunday - NYC, USA: Museum of Natural History (Formerly Folding-Free-For-All)
Origami Sunday will be held this Sunday (November 25, 2012) in Children's Lunchrooms in the basement of the Museum of Natural History. This is the room reserved until the end of the year. Thje Holiday Tree should be up - so if you are tired of Turkey and shopping - this is the perfect time to view the tree and do a little folding. Arlene and I are just back from the Italian convention and have a number of new models to show. Any OrigamiUSA members in or visiting the New York City area on the 4th Sunday of each month are welcome to join our monthly folding meetings at the American Museum of Natural History from 1:00 to 4:00 PM. Please bring folding paper plus something to share. It's especially appreciated if you bring a model to teach, but if you're not comfortable teaching yet please bring something else to contribute such as a model to show that you've been enjoying folding, an origami book or newsletter others might find of interest, or paper for the group. We will have a special sharing table" set aside for display of models to teach, models to show, books, publications, and paper contributions. These monthly meetings are a continuation of the tradition Lillian Oppenheimer began over 50 years ago of encouraging paperfolders to get together to teach each other and exchange ideas. OrigamiUSA is able to provide a meeting space - the rest is up to those attending. When you arrive at the museum please check at any information desk for the meeting room number. The folding sessions are similar to the informal folding at convention. For more formal classes, watch for information on the Fall Special Folding Sessions: http://www.origami-usa.org/specialsessions.
