Join experts from the British Origami Society for a talk exploring the history of origami in Britain and around the world.

Explore how origami has shaped both art and innovation — with surprising applications from architecture to medicine. Featuring rarely seen gems from the Society’s archive, housed at The Minories, this event reveals how origami connects geometry, creativity, and artistic expression.

The talk also shares the story of Sadako Sasaki and the peace crane — a powerful symbol of hope born from the tragedy of Hiroshima. You’ll have the chance to fold your own crane and contribute to the growing display of peace at the gallery.
