Family Fridays:
"Festive fold: make a uniquely valuable star for the holidays"
Friday, December 9 at 6:30 pm ET (New York)
(online)
Thinking about what to buy for those hard-to-shop-for family and friends? Wondering whether a gift card is the way to go? Wait! There’s a new, even more versatile option, just in time for the holidays — a uniquely mathematical and artistic gift — folded money! Using five one-dollar bills (or larger bills, or paper) and under the expert guidance of MoMath favorite instructor Kathleen Sheridan, we will construct a lovely five-pointed star. A unique folding sequence and strong lock bring plenty of math into the equation, while symmetry and elegance make for a beautiful, star-shaped, decorative element for the holidays. Bring your own CRISP bills or use paper provided by MoMath for your own model. Come fold with us!
