Body Positive Origami Workshop: 15th May 2022 – 4pm BST (UK time)

MRKH Connect are delighted to team up with Femigami to run this creative, fun workshop as part of the MRKH 5000 in 50 challenge!

FemigamiΒ specialises in hosting playful and thought-provoking workshops using the traditional art of origami to create unconventional paper creations, whilst facilitating conversations around body image, feminism and wellbeing.

These unique workshops aim to breakdown stigma and normalise our bodies so that we can feel more comfortable and confident in our everyday lives. In this session you’ll learn how to make feminist icons; an origami vulva and penis amongst some other unconventional paper creations. No prior experience needed!

  • colourful pen, pencil or biro
  • Sellotape /double sided tape

  • Decorations: think wool, sequins, glitter, stickers – whatever you have laying around at home!
