SPECIAL FOLDING FUN SESSIONS
May 1st, 2005 (AM & PM)

Sunday, May 1st, 2005 - Morning (10:30am - 12:30pm)
 
TEA BAG FOLDING taught by Paula Parris LOW INTERMEDIATE
Enjoy a hot cup of tea with Paula, then fold the "wrapper" or really-small pretty papers to make decorations for cards, picture frames and a wearable pin. And you thought you'd never get through all that two-inch paper you bought!
 
AFRICAN VIOLET taught by John Blackman INTERMEDIATE
John is a master at folding realistic flowers. Join him to learn this lovely pot of African violets. It's easy to get these paper versions to "bloom." Then John will show you how to wire them, connect them to leaves, and place them in an origami flower pot for full effect.
 
FLOWER taught by Kay Eng INTERMEDIATE
Folded from a hexagon, this lovely flower has a great folding sequence. Kay will show you how to fold this flower with a center and six petals surrounded by six leaves. There is a color change for the leaves, so if you fold it from red-green duo paper, it looks like a poinsettia. Very nice!
 
KOALA taught by Gay Merrill Gross HIGH INTERMEDIATE
Go "down under" with Gay! She will teach this adorable koala by Yoshihide Momotani that features a clever spring action in the front arms, allowing the koala to clutch to your finger or a branch. This class is for accomplished folders only.
 
90-PIECE MODULAR CONSTRUCTION taught by Wendy Zeichner HIGH INTERMEDIATE
Can you easily fold a 30-piece modular? Do you *see* the groups of three and five? If you can, come to the next level with Wendy and put together a 90-piece modular. Students must bring 90 folded units (either Sonobe or Bascetta preferred) folded from 3 - 4.25 inch paper in the following color combination: 30 units of one color, and then 5 each of 12 colors. Wendy will only teach construction, so start folding now.
 

Sunday, May 1st, 2005 - Afternoon (2:30pm - 5pm)
 
EVERYTHING FOR THE TRAVELER taught by Laura Kruskal SIMPLE
--CANCELLED--
 
FOLD AND WEAR JEWELRY taught by Rachel Katz LOW INTERMEDIATE
Ever wanted to make some origami jewelry but hated fussing with the findings? Well, look no more. Yuri and Katrin Shumakov have created a whole collection of "Fold and Wear Jewelry." Rachel will teach earrings for pierced or not and bracelets that will complement any wardrobe or make lovely gifts.
 
$ FOLDS taught by Andrew Hans INTERMEDIATE
Andrew will teach two great $ folds-the first is called "The Wings of Love" which is a crane sitting atop a heart. The second is a variant of it, which is two flying cranes one a top the other. Bring two crisp one-dollar bills to class.
 
CRANE.IUM taught by Shrikant Iyer INTERMEDIATE
You know how to fold a crane. So now what? Shrikant will teach you to use your cranium to make a neat greeting card (some cutting involved) with interlocking cranes, and a crane toothpick holder that has a superb folding sequence.
 
HAVE A BALL taught by Andrew Borloz HIGH INTERMEDIATE
Join Andrew for a chance to learn his original geometric modulars. They are faceted and fascinating and use a cool indenting technique! From one modular maniac to another-- don't miss it!
 
FACE NOUVEAU taught by Russell Sutherland HIGH INTERMEDIATE
Undercover the secrets behind Joisel-type masks. Russell will teach his face nouveau model which is just eyes, nose and a mouth, then he will teach a technique for developing these wonderful sculpted damp-folded masks. Canson paper will be provided.
