Origami Art Workshops for children
On 17th August, Pantechnicon is hosting a special art workshop for children with artist Miwa Takabayashi. Using ‘Happy Origami’ kits from Japan each child will make three cute origami animals to take home. The art of origami-making has been taught to children in Japan for generations to expand imagination and heighten concentration. By playing with folded patterns and symmetry, they can learn about aspects of maths, geometry and design.
Suggested for children aged 5-10 years old. Tickets are free. More information can be found here https://www.pantechnicon.com/explore/p/orgiami-art-workshop
