Please understand that we have a limited number of spaces and as a voluntary donation workshop, it is very popular!

The workshop is regularly getting 30-40 registrations but we are only able to accomodate 20 people per workshop.

If you do not get a place for the current workshop, you will be put on a waiting list and given first priority for the next available one.

If you can NOT make it, please cancel your RSVP so that someone else can attend.

****************************** Hi Everyone! Welcome to Amsterdam Origami Club. This is a monthly origami workshop for all abilities to learn the wonderful art of origami.

Each month there will be a different themed origami workshop.

The workshop is run by [Samuel Tsang](https://mindfulorigami.com/) the author of "[The Book of Mindful Origami"](https://www.yellowkitebooks.co.uk/titles/samuel-tsang/the-book-of-mindful-origami/9781473635012/) and "[The Magic of Mindful Origami."](https://www.yellowkitebooks.co.uk/titles/samuel-tsang/the-magic-of-mindful-origami/9781473635029/)

How much is the workshop? The workshop is sponsored by the OBA to promote more community activies and events in the libraries. The workshop will run on a voluntary donation basis.

If you can, please donate to help fund the art materials, paper, books & printing. You can make a donation at the workshop either with cash or our QR tikkie code.

Monthly themes: Every month I choose a different set of models to teach. Below are just suggested topics, they can often change if I discover a new fun model.

Jan - Animals - land, air and sea. Learn to make birds, fish and cats and dogs. Feb - Valentines Day - learn to make hearts, love letters, diamond ring and tulips. March - Wedding bouquet - learn to make lilies and tulips and tie them into a beautiful bouquet. April - Easter - bunnies, chicks, baskets and tulips May - Mother's day - learn to make beautiful flowers June - Modular origami - Learn about the science and math of modular origami and their architectural uses. Make Sonobe modules and build complex geometric shapes. July - Kirigami - cut paper models. Aug - tbc Sep - Water animals Oct - Halloween - learn to make spooky ghosts, bats and pumpkins. Nov - tbc December - Christmas themes

This is an instructor lead workshop where you will follow step by step instructions on a projector screen on how to create each of the beautiful models.

In between demonstrations you will have time to recreate each model and there will be a short break half way through the workshop. You will also be provided with all materials and sent a link to instructional videos on our website.

Aims of the origami club: We are looking for volunteers to help run the workshops and hope to make the origami club a regular meetup to promote origami. I also hope to train up some deputies to help lead the workshops. I will show you how to present and confidently teach an origami model. If you are interested in volunteering please contact me.
