Get ready to supersize your folding!
When: Sunday, 8:00 pm sharp!
Where: Bowery (Lower Level)
How it works: Teams of four or more will be given a sheet of 9-foot square paper to fold to their heart's content for 45 minutes. All participants will get a prize for being involved and will get a chance to show off what you folded with your team at the end of the event.
This activity is so much fun and accessible to all folders of all skill and age levels.
If you choose not to participate, we are opening up more Volunteering opportunities during the event. This is a great position for a Guardian of a younger folder who’s participating (or anyone else, too). Being a spectator and supporting the folders is almost as much fun as the folding and takes no prior experience. No matter what, we hope everyone will cheer on the teams and be wowed by what they create.
For 2025 we have made a simpler process for all who would like to fold giant models. There will be no team sign up ahead of time. This year, teams will be created at 8:00 pm and folding will start shortly after. If you know who you would like to be on your team in advance that’s fine, too. Just make sure everyone is there for 8:00 pm. We recommend ensuring you have the contact information for your teammates ahead of time.
You must be registered for Convention to participate.
