Conventions

Meeting other folders is a great experience, and one of the best places to do it is at a convention. During the Covid 19 Pandemic we held virtual conventions, but now we have restarted our 2 day residential weekend events. These conventions are heaven for folders everywhere! New members are made especially welcome, as are children and “non-folding” partners. Our experience of virtual events has allowed us to look at new ways to offer such events.

Here is a list of our previous conventions.

Mini-meetings

Inevitably, the folding appetites of many people are not satisfied entirely by two conventions a year, so the we also offer local meetings, called “mini-meetings”, generally once a month. These meetings are mostly informal with about a dozen people attending on average.

Folds are taught, stories exchanged and a good time is had by all. Or bring along any new (or old!) books you have found, any folds you are struggling with, any origami memorabilia and show them to other local members.

Details are shown in our members area, but meetings take place in Birmingham,  Brighton & Hove, Bristol, Bury St  Edmunds,  Gloucester, London, Manchester, the North East, Nottingham, Oxford, Scotland, Sheffield, Slough and York.
