11 Nov The Origami Holiday Tree Returns to American Museum of Natural History
From November 25, 2024 to mid-January 2025
With a nod to turning the calendar page on the 2024 leap year, this holiday season’s 13-foot tree, Jumping for Joy, celebrates the many animals with a particular prowess that sets them apart—hopping, pouncing, leaping!
Among the more than 1,000 origami pieces decorating the tree will be intricately designed models of rabbits, kangaroos, grasshoppers, frogs, squirrels, porpoises, whales, the newly discovered leaping leech, and cicadas, two broods of which emerged together this year for the first time since 1803!
Also on display will be models depicting iconic Museum exhibits like the Blue Whale and Tyrannosaurus rex.
Produced in partnership with OrigamiUSA, the Origami Holiday Tree is delightfully decorated with hand-folded paper models created by local, national, and international origami artists.
Included with admission.
