Art that makes paper come alive
November 11, 2023
Every year on November 11, World Origami Day is celebrated all over the world. On this occasion, the Department of Public Relations and Museum Education of the National Museum of History of Moldova organized two origami workshops for children, their parents and grandparents. For many of them, this was a unique opportunity to learn about the history of this technique, specific to Japanese culture, to create small artistic jewels using only paper. During the activities, the participants were intrigued by what the finished product would look like and were extremely happy with their creations, achieved through ability, imagination, great skill and, above all, patience. These were later taken home and given with much love to families and friends. Thus, puppies, houses and many cranes came to life, which are the symbol of peace, hope and longevity. The two workshops demonstrated that origami is both an artistic manifestation and a passion that embraces creative people who want to add more color and relaxation to everyday life, and the satisfaction is sure to live up to their expectations. At the same time, those present at the event got acquainted with the exhibition "Origami - the World Tree", organized by NMHM in partnership with the Origami Moldova Association, which will be open to the public until November 25, 2023.
