The activities of the Israeli Origami Center

The Israeli Origami Center was founded in 1993 by Miri Golan, a paperfolding specialist,
who set her goal to bring people closer to the paper folding art.
Miri has published 8 origami booklets, that use a method which is a lot simpler
than other common publication sold in Israel and abroad.
In addition - Miri has developed a didactic program for developing learning capabilities using origami,
and this program has been implemented in the curriculum of about 8000 students in the special and regular
education systems.

The origami center employs a team of 25 teachers, who were trained to teach origami,
and do so in various schools.
The special teaching method has been proven successful in developing learning capabilities.

The center has an origami club, where folders of all ages meet every two months.
The center is headed by a dedicated team, for whom origami is part of the way of life.
The team was recently joined by a celebrated international paper artist: Mr. Paul Jackson,
who teaches at Shenkar and in courses at the center.
