Welcome to the infinite world of Origami! In Japanese, ori means "to fold" and gami means "paper". Using origami, music and audience participation, Kuniko provides a magical introduction to Japanese culture and the art of simplicity. In "Origami Tales", mythological character masks & puppets, amazing flowers, and a dragon—all made from origami—set the stage, while Kuniko shares heartfelt stories from ancient Japan.
