“Japan Junction” is returning to the Levy Park Spring Break lineup with the Daily Fold. Join us daily to transform a flat square sheet of paper into sculpted creations!
Each program will feature a new design with two levels of difficulty, allowing kids of all ages to enjoy the art of origami. This year’s Daily Fold will take you on an origami journey through American iconic symbols and Japanese motifs in celebration of the 250th Anniversary of the United States.
Fold your way through:
Food – Enjoy everyday favorites: the American Hamburger and the Japanese Sushi
Flower – Fold the strong and beautiful Rose and fleeting yet gorgeous Sakura.
Bird – Discover and fold each countries’ symbol birds.
Cultural Icon – Experience the spirit of the Cowboy and the Samurai.
Landmarks – Visit the Statue of Liberty and Buddha Statue of Nara through origami.
Origami paper and instructions will be provided by the Japan-America Society of Houston. Come fold, create, and celebrate this special year with us!
