About WOD (World Origami Days)
In September 2005, OrigamiUSA suggested to make October 24th as the World Origami Day, since that date is the birthday of Lillian Oppenheimer (1898-1992), one of the founders of the British Origami Society and OrigamiUSA. Makoto Yamaguchi then pointed out that in Japan November 11th had already been established as the Origami Day. World-wide celebration of origami by spreading the joy of paperfolding. So, the period from 10/24 to 11/11 has become the period of World Origami Days or WOD.
