Get ready for a round of pure artistic fun! In this session we will be using paper to make different shapes using Origami – the Japanese art of folding paper into decorative shapes and figures. Do not worry if you have never done Origami before! This session is especially designed for absolute beginners. We start with some basic shapes that you might have made as kids and then move on to making some other shapes like butterflies, fishes and birds.
