Forrest Kramer Room 103.1

Ready to try something creative and fun? Join us for an engaging adult origami program where you’ll learn how to fold your very own blowable origami balloons!

Using a simple sheet of paper, you’ll discover how a few folds can transform it into a unique balloon that you can inflate by blowing air into it. No previous origami experience is needed. Our instructor, Amos Eldred, will guide you through the process step by step.

Whether you’re new to origami or simply looking for a relaxing activity, this program is a great opportunity to learn something new, get creative, and enjoy some time with others.

No experience necessary!
All skill levels welcome!
Learn to fold, inflate, and enjoy your own origami balloon!

Come fold with us and see what you can create from a simple piece of paper!
