members, who heard how the art
originated and how it is ac-
complished
The Japanese do no consider
Origami to be an art form, but look
on it rather as something which is
an integral part of their culture

packaging, Origami has now
become an accepted pasttime for
the young and an intellectual hobby
for many adults
