The Oakhurst Library is pleased to host a workshop presented by Carla Hyatt from Bakersfield on Saturday, October 24^th.  At the class, participants will make two sculpted Christmas wreaths and a Thanksgiving Pumpkin.  Carla will teach her audience how to use the ancient art of folding paper into various artistic shapes.

Carla is a retired math teacher and often used origami to demonstrate mathematic concepts to her middle-school students. Origami helped her teach fractions and geometry and now she is applying her skills to making these unique Christmas decorations.

“Give one-of-a-kind, handcrafted Christmas wreaths this year using origami.  Have fun and make something special, too,” says Carla.

On the same day, after this event in Oakhurst, Carla will be teaching the same class at the North Fork Library (32908 Road 222, 559-877-2387) from 2:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. 

Anyone aged 11 and older is invited (children and adults).  But, the class is limited to the first 40 people to pre-register at: 559-683-4838. All supplies will be provided. Each student will make the decorations and can take their projects with them at the end of class. Thank you to FOBL for sponsoring this event.
