Orange: MAKING ORIGAMI MAPLE LEAF CARDS (Adult Summer Reading Craft)

Time:
-
Location:
Marion Main Library, 118 S Sheffey Street, Marion, VA, 24354, United States

For the 2025 Adult Summer Reading Program events, this year’s theme is “Color Our World”.

We invite you to embark on a journey of art & creativity, celebrating the many ways art enriches our lives. Our program is designed to inspire you through weekly color-concentrated events, learning & fun.  Week 2, we’re celebrating the next color of the rainbow — ORANGE.

Join us on Thursday, June 12th from 6 to 8pm, upstairs in the Marion library, to make greeting cards with origami maple leaves.  This fun craft makes a cute décor item you can frame or a card you can pass along to a friend or family member. No experience needed.

Origami (折り紙, Japanese pronunciation: [oɾiɡami] or [oɾiꜜɡami]) is the Japanese art of paper folding.

All materials provided FREE.  Class limited to 15.  Ages 18+
