Fold, crease, repeat. Waterlution, in partnership with Greatness – The Great Lakes Project, invites paper folding enthusiasts of all abilities to contribute origami shapes to DEEP BLUE, a Great Art for Great Lakes community art project, on August 6 and 13 at the Ontario Science Centre.

DEEP BLUE, the winning Great Art for Great Lakes submission for Toronto, celebrates the beauty, ecology and majestic depths of Lake Ontario. Proposed by Toronto-based artist collective Labspace Studio in collaboration with 12-year-old Daniel Ranger, a Great Lakes Trust junior ambassador, this community-engaged art project will be on permanent display at the Ontario Science Centre upon completion.

Labspace Studio and Daniel Ranger will facilitate origami workshops from 2 - 5 p.m. on August 6 and 13 in Inventorium, the Ontario Science Centre’s new hands-on learning space. Workshop participants will contribute to DEEP BLUE by creating origami shapes - based on designs created by Daniel - that depict various Lake Ontario species. These origami workshops are included with general admission to the Science Centre.
