Youth Workshop: Contemporary Origami with Robert J. Lang and Glenn Kaino

Join world-renowned physicist and origami artist, Robert J. Lang, for a workshop on the art of paper folding. Robert Lang is a pioneer of the newest kind of origami—using math and engineering principles to fold mind-blowingly intricate designs that are beautiful and, sometimes, very useful. All youth are welcome to join for a unique hands-on lesson with Glenn Kaino Studio and learn about how art can tell special stories. Lang is a regular collaborator of Glenn Kaino, whose exhibition Aki’s Market is on view at JANM through January 28, 2024.

Please note this workshop is intended for youth (under 18 years of age). Younger children may be accompanied by an adult. Questions or concerns may be directed to publicprograms@janm.org.
