December 5th, 2004 (AM & PM)

Sunday, December 5th, 2004 - Morning (10:30am - 12:30pm)
 
CHRISTMAS taught by Maria Velazquez SIMPLE
Maria has done her research again and this time she's come up with a nice assortment for the Christmas holiday. Trees, Santas and much, much more. These models delight both young and old-after all, 'tis the season to teach origami to your non-folding friends!
 
PARROT JUNGLE taught by Katherine Riley LOW INTERMEDIATE
Learn some tropical models to brighten up your winter days. Katherine will teach a collection of parrots who stand, perch, flap, and even kiss (a modification of the kissing penguins) as time permits. They are great for jewelry, mobiles, and greeting cards.
 
MODULARS taught by Ravi Apte INTERMEDIATE
Here's a riddle: who goes to Japan and comes back with some really terrific modular folds? Ravi, of course! So, of course he'll be teaching them. All of them can be made from 6 pieces and there are lots of variations. Modular maniacs-this one is for you! I'm there. You don't have to ask me twice.
 
3-D WET FOLDED CRANE taught by Ros Joyce HIGH INTERMEDIATE
The crane is not just a traditional origami model-it's also an elegant and beautiful bird. Ros will teach this wet-folded Joisel 3-D crane in flight complete with a long neck and wings that reveal a hint of feathers. You might not want to fold 1,000 but definitely a few!
 
SNOWFLAKES taught by Delrosa Marshall HIGH INTERMEDIATE
"Snowflakes that fall on my nose and eyelashes. . ." Not really, but Delrosa will definitely teach you snowflakes that will become some of your favorite things. After spending nearly all of Fall 2004 decorating the tree at the museum with a winter wonderland theme, Delrosa will have some of the best snowflake models to share.
 

Sunday, December 5th, 2004 - Afternoon (2:30pm - 5pm)
 
CARDS taught by Sok Song SIMPLE
Sok has been designing and making handmade greeting cards for over 10 years. He will share his secrets for incorporating origpmi into greeting cards for any occasion. Sok will also share techniques for including other media, such as rubber stpmping, embossing, and die cutting. Student will make several handmade cards and even some invitations. You're invited!
 
ACCORDION BOOK taught by Rona Gurkewitz LOW INTERMEDIATE
This book is practical and easy to fold. Rona will show you how to take ordinary copy paper and turn it into a clever book complete with binding and closure. You can't play music on it, but the accordion folding method for this book will have you humming a cheerful tune.
 
ZIG & ZAG PLUS UFO taught by Deanna & Emily Kwan INTERMEDIATE
Deanna and Emily will teach Daniel's modular called "Zig" folded from four pieces. The assembly is tricky, but once you "see it" it's not too hard and you'll be ready to make the mirror image called "Zag." The UFO is a modular from only two pieces of paper-cool and clever as well! You can't go wrong when you mix modulars and the Kwan fpmily!
 
ROOSTERS taught by Tricia Tait INTERMEDIATE
Tricia has something to crow about! She's all set for the year of the rooster coming in 2005, with three new unpublished roosters that she learned in Japan: one is from a dipmond, one is a pencil holder/chopstick rest and one is decorative with a color change. Then she will finish off with a "coin-holder" rooster that's really perfect for a Chinese New Year. Cock-a-doodle-doo!
 
BABY BUGGIES taught by Tony Cheng HIGH INTERMEDIATE
This classic box-pleated model from the 1960's is a model every High Intermediate folder should have in their repertory. Folded from a single sheet with a spot for a baby and round wheels, it makes an impressive display piece and a great gift for someone who just had a baby. So, don't be a baby and come fold the buggy!
