Mini-meetings
Inevitably, the folding appetites of many people are not whetted by two conventions
a year, so the BOS organises local meetings, generally once a month. These meetings
are mostly informal with about a dozen people attending on average. The idea
is to bring along any new (or old!) books you have found, any folds you are
struggling with, any origami memorabilia and show them to other local members.
Folds are taught, stories exchanged and a good time is had by all. If you'd
like to come along, just give the organiser a ring to check all is "as advertised" and
off you go! There are still huge areas of Britian not covered by mini-meetings
- if you are in an "oasis", please get in touch so we can help you
set meetings up!
If you want more company, try one of our conventions!
