March 7th, 2004 (AM & PM)

Sunday, March 7th, 2004 - Morning (10:30am - 12:30pm)
 
CAPED MAN taught by Toby Schwartz SIMPLE
It's a man, it's a wizard, it's Little Red Riding Hood. Once you know how and use a little imagination, you can create your own version of Susumu Nakajima"s "Caped Man" -it's a "super" fold to know. Join Toby to explore these endless possibilities.
 
MASU BOX VARIATIONS taught by Gay Merrill Gross INTERMEDIATE
If you are already accomplished at folding the traditional square masu box, you will enjoy these variations. The models include a box with a colored diagonal band on the lid (that's also a pocket for a note!), a rectangular masu box, a cube-shaped masu box and lid, and how to make finger notches on boxes for easy-off lids or paper holders. Beautiful and useful!
 
BUNNY & BASKET taught by Liz Ou Yang SIMPLE
Liz will teach this bevy of bunnies including a bunny bookmark, a simple standing rabbit, an inflatable rabbit, and a shy rabbit (with two pieces of paper) by Susanna Kricskovics. And then to finish up-- a basket to hold all your bunnies! These models are simple and fun. Make sure you bring your carrots!
 
HARMONY KUSUDAMA taught by Jinni Xu INTERMEDIATE
This beautiful kusudama is put together with 60 pieces, and is one of Jinni's favorites. This model usually folded from shaded papers sold in a kit (which will be provided.) This model does use glue, but many kusudama do-and this one is certainly worth making an exception for!
 
ONE PIECE OMEGA STAR taught by Ravi Apte COMPLEX
Did you know that an omega star-traditionally folded as a 6 or 12-piece modular star- can also be folded from one piece of paper? Ravi will show you how! This model has a nice folding sequence, which though complex, is symmetrical and fun to fold. The omega star is always impressive and even more so when folded from a single sheet of paper!
 

Sunday, March 7th, 2004 - Afternoon (2:30pm - 5pm)
 
GREETING CARDS taught by Sok Song LOW INTERMEDIATE
Sok has been designing and making handmade greeting cards for over 10 years. He will share his secrets for incorporating origami into greeting cards for any occasion. Sok will also share techniques for including other media, such as rubber stamping, embossing, and die cutting. Student will make several handmade cards and even some invitations. You're invited!
 
LOBSTER & BLUE WHALE taught by Marc Kirschenbaum LOW INTERMEDIATE
If you missed folding this cute lobster this past holiday-Mark will take you through his model step by step. It's so realistic-you might want to bring a dish of melted butter. Then for a really "whale of a good time," Mark with teach this blue whale. "Sea" you there!
 
FUSE SHELL & RING taught by Maria Velazquez INTERMEDIATE
Join Maria when she teaches these wonderful unpublished Fuse models. Beginning with a spiral shell and then moving on to an 8-piece ring that looks great when folded from duo paper. Though both models are basically flat, they have a nice fullness to them which gives them greater depth and beauty. These models require precision folding.
 
GOBLINS taught by Mark Kennedy HIGH INTERMEDIATE
The master of tissue foil is back, this time with 2 of Rikki Donnachi's goblins- a "Smiling Goblin" folded from a square and a "Rude Goblin" folded from A4. Both models have very expressive faces, with the rude one sticking out his tongue in a very cheeky manner. Mark will have you smiling through both these folds, so don't be rude and try it!
 
SNOWFLAKE taught by Tony Cheng HIGH INTERMEDIATE
Tony will teach a variety of lovely snowflakes folded from thin white paper. These look great against your window because of their semi-transparent quality. Now you can enjoy a lovely winter day, no matter what the season.
