Bring the magic of origami from your fingertips to the world!
We celebrate origami by spreading the joy of paper folding during World Origami Days, held each year from October 24–November 11, a 2-1/2 week celebration of the international community of origami!
- October 24 is the birthday of Lillian Oppenheimer (1898-1992), who founded the first origami group in North America. She was also one of the founders of the British Origami Society and OrigamiUSA.
- November 11 is Origami Day in Japan where the paper crane has become a symbol of peace.
