BSRV and Guide Dogs Victoria invite you to discover the art of origami folding.

Come along and join our origami workshops.

Blind Sports & Recreation Victoria (BSRV) and Guide Dogs Victoria invite you to join our origami Christmas decoration project 
This is a shared project between BSRV and Guide Dogs Victoria.

You are invited to participate in a series of fun-filled workshops where you will learn how to make beautiful origami Christmas decorations. Join others who are blind or vision impaired, along with dedicated and supportive volunteers.

This is a wonderful opportunity to meet new people, socialise, and share some laughs. Everyone is welcome, and no experience is necessary as training will be provided to ensure you feel comfortable and confident.

Learn basic paper folding skills in the first few workshops, and progress to using decorated paper for the final designs. The final decorations include stars, boxes, hearts and doves which will adorn a Christmas tree.

As this is a joint project between BSRV and Guide Dogs Victoria, we will have workshops at the BSRV office in Kooyong on Tuesdays and at Guide Dogs in Kew on Wednesdays.
