Make a crane

Arts Place program “Flying in Place, An Artist's Response to COVID-19” is being launched by Mississinawa Valley art teacher Ashley Austerman in conjunction with visiting artist Kate Gorman. 

On square sheets of paper, participants are asked to create a drawing on one side, then use the other side to express thoughts about the pandemic experience. Those thoughts might be in the form of a story or a poem or a list.

Then, following origami instructions provided by Arts Place, participants will fold the sheet into a paper crane.

Free kits for the project will be available at Arts Place beginning Monday.

The completed cranes should be dropped off at Arts Place by Aug. 15.

Then all of the cranes will be part of an exhibit on display from Sept. 4 to Oct. 4.
