The Big Kids’ Table: Origami Edition at Santa Monica Library

 Santa Monica Public Library presents The Big Kids’ Table: Origami Edition on Wednesday, January 11, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in the Main Library’s Multipurpose Room, 601 Santa Monica Blvd.

Looking to have fun, socialize and de-stress? Take a seat at The Big Kids’ Table, the Main Library’s monthly series of activities that invites adults to get in touch with their inner “big kid.” This month, try your hand at origami, the Japanese art of folding paper. Make the first of your 1001 cranes. Upcycle a greeting card into a gift box. Fold a dollar bill into a heart. Or relax by coloring or playing a game of Scrabble. All materials will be provided. Just bring your creativity!

This program is free and open to all ages. Seating is limited and on a first arrival basis. The Santa Monica Public Library is wheelchair accessible.
