DAY ORIGAMI Origami
L to idea of \u200b\u200bhaving the International Day of Origami comes two years ago, following a proposal by OATUU (Origami USA) to celebrate every October 24 to mark the birth of Lillian Oppenheimer , founder of the British Origami Society (BOS) OATUU England and the United States, two of the most important groups in the world of Origami.
was also proposed on 11 November, a day which celebrates the National Day of Origami in Japan, as on that day the crane was set up as a symbol of peace.
A third proposal would be the March 14 birthday of Akira Yoshizawa, the great master of Modern Origami.
For several origami speak of a single day of the Origami would be very limiting, for this reason, the broader trend seen in the calendar: Origami Week to tear out October 24 and ending on November 11 (at that time). The decision is in each country.
