SUMMARY:Transparent Folded Paper Window Stars
DESCRIPTION:Folded paper stars originated in European folk arts. German educator Fredrich Froebel (1782-1852)\, founder of the idea of kindergarten\, taught young children to make 3-dimensional stars to learn spatial and math concepts. In the Scandinavian countries\, Nordic stars are traditionally hung in windows during the winter solstice season to symbolize hope\, warmth\, and the triumph of light over the long winter nights. Stars folded from transparent paper are often called Waldorf stars because Rudolph Steiner popularized the craft in his educational method to allow children to explore geometry\, color theory\, and the rhythm of the seasons \nThe magic of window stars is that they create complicated figures from simple folds. The class will make one star together\, learning the beginner folds and gluing the star points together. Then you will be able to move forward to more elaborate stars at your own pace. You will go home with a sheaf of patterns and a calm mind. \nAll tools and supplies will be provided. The class registration fee includes\, a $5 fee for materials. \nPlease bring a bag lunch/snack. \nMinimum number of participants: 2 \nIf minimum enrollment for the class has not been reached 72 hours prior to the start of class\, VBA reserves the right to cancel the class. In this case\, you will be notified 72 hours in advance\, and your registration fee will be refunded. \nInstructor:  Dorothy Smith \n
