Fold objects that can be used as stationary, party accessories, gifts, or decorations while learning the history of origami.

World-renowned artist Ruthanne Bessman shares how the artform has evolved from simple designs relegated to child's play to works of art that are exhibited in museums and its current status as a tool for math, therapy, science, technology, and medicine.

This workshop is part of a series taking place at nine Dane County libraries. The workshops are made possible through a grant from the Beyond the Page Endowment and the Madison Community Foundation.
