“Oribana is a form of paper art that combines origami and ikebana, which are traditional Japanese art forms. The word “oribana” is a portmanteau of “ori” (fold) from origami and “bana” (flower) from ikebana.
In this popular workshop, run by origami artist M. Fumie Craig, students gain hands-on experience doing Oribana and they will learn how to fold and create paper flower arrangements in a paper vase.
