Details for our next meeting can be found in the events section or on the calendar on the left. Anyone interested in origami is invited to attend, regardless of MIT affiliation - and origami beginners are always welcome! Support Us!We do our best at OrigaMIT to provide the MIT community with high level Workshops and Lectures free of charge. Much of our funding comes from the MIT Undergraduate Association, but this funding is only supposed to be used to fund the activities of current MIT students, and generally not enough to cover the expenses related to events open to the general public. If you enjoy our events and would like to support OrigaMIT through a donation, you can do so online through MIT Give, or by sending a check made out to OrigaMIT - MIT to:
