OrigamiUSA Convention

The Origami USA Convention 2025, an annual gathering of origami enthusiasts from around the world, was successfully held once again this year.
Taro’s Origami Studio participated as a sponsor and had the pleasure of sharing the beauty and joy of origami with countless visitors over four days.

Origami USA is the largest origami organization in the United States. It is dedicated to promoting the artistic, educational, and cultural value of origami. Founded in 1980 and based in New York City, the organization serves as a hub for origami enthusiasts and artists both in the U.S. and abroad.
One of its flagship activities is the Annual Convention, held every June in New York. This event attracts origami creators and fans from all over the globe, featuring hundreds of workshops, lectures, and exhibitions, as well as active exchanges of knowledge and techniques.
Welcoming everyone from beginners to advanced practitioners, the convention is a vital event for the international origami community.

Taro’s Origami Studio’s Participation

Taro’s Origami Studio was once again the lead sponsor of this year’s convention. As in previous years, we also hosted a vendor booth featuring a wide array of popular origami products, books, tools, and accessories.
This year, we additionally held a special live demonstration and sale of triple tissue paper, handmade by Taro himself.

As a sponsor, our studio’s logo was featured in the official convention program and displayed on tables throughout the venue.
We are grateful for the many new connections we made—some visitors recognized our name and approached us for the first time, while others were longtime followers.
