Origami Holiday Tree at the American Museum of Natural History: November 21, 2011 - January 2, 2012
Posted in: Holiday, Museums and Exhibits, Upcoming Events
An annual Museum tradition, the delightfully decorated Origami Holiday Tree has marked the start of the holiday season at the Museum for more than 30 years. Inspired by the blue whale (the largest animal in the world) displayed in the Milstein Hall of Ocean Life and the current exhibition The World’s Largest Dinosaurs, this year’s Origami Holiday Tree decorations pay tribute to some of the largest and most impressive animals and inanimate objects found in the Museum halls through the art of origami. The upcoming Origami Holiday Tree at the American Museum of Natural History will be on display from November 21st, 2011 through January 2nd, 2012. Volunteers begin folding in July to complete the 500 creations that will be displayed on the tree.
