Foldeas: Sharing Ideas through Origami

Gerardo founded in 2020, and currently runs Foldeas: Sharing Ideas through Origami. Foldeas are bimonthly hands-on presentations by guest speakers from a wide variety of countries, through Zoom, each one related–one way or another–to paper folding.

The sessions aren't recorded, so don't miss them! You can find an article about Foldeas in OrigamiUSA's The Paper #136 (autumn 2021), which was written by Diana Mann.

Contact Gerardo to join the Foldeas/UnFold email list and be updated about future events. Gerardo will ask you to first add him among your contacts and whitelist his email address. A guide will be provided explaining how to do that.
