It’s another long, hot summer in Tucson. Cool off by joining the Tucson Origami Club at their Japanese paper folding activity on August 3 and September 7 at Dao’s Tai Pan restaurant, 446 N. Wilmot Road, just south of the Wilmot public library.
The Club meets on the 1st Saturday of each month, all year. They fold lovely origami from 10 to 11 am then there is optional lunch on your own. All ages welcome.
In July the club folded colorful origami spinning tops pictured below. Photo courtesy of M.Fumie Craig, founder of Tucson Origami Club.
