Description
Origami In NatureOrigami - the art of folding paper into artistic shapes - is a style of art that has existed for centuries, all the way back to when paper was first invented. However, did you know that nature has been a master of folding objects long before humans came along? From things like insect wings and pollen grains - there are many examples of animals and plants that use folding to their advantage. If you'd like to find out more, and try your own hand at folding, stop by the Discovery Center and join us in celebrating National Origami Day!
