Lafayette College Origami Crane Stringing & Folding Party

Exhibit is located at The Lounge on the 3rd floor of the Allan P. Kirby Sports Center at Lafayette 

The National Crane Project, started by Lafayette College Theater and 10-year-old College Hill resident David Heard and his family, is working on getting 220,000 origami cranes folded and assembled into mobiles of 1000 cranes (since Japanese legend says 1000 cranes can grant a wish) to be installed in Pediatric Cancer Centers around the country for children who, like David did, are bravely battling childhood cancer. While David passed away in Feb. 2011, the National Crane Project, along with his family, is committed to carrying out his wish. Join us for snacks and stringing. Just bring yourself - no prior experience required. Event is open to all and all ages are welcome.
