Origami in Action : Birds of Peace & Compassion
January 20, 2026 @ 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm EST
Join us as we continue to learn the basics of origami, and explore various types of birds. We will discuss using our newly learned in skills in creating origami as a protest art. You are welcome to come, relax, and join us in simply creating origami.
Or, you have the option to join us in the following action….
We hope to create as many origami birds as possible. Long considered a symbol of peace and hope, we plan to come together and deliver them to the nearest ice detention center on President’s Day, February 16, 2026.
Perhaps we’ll gather them in a garland to hang on a fence or from a tree. It won’t matter if there is one bird or an entire flock—the symbolism is the same: In these times of chaos and lack of empathy, where hatred is made acceptable, we will stand together for peace. We will stand for the love of one another. We will recognize the inherent worth of all of us, no matter from where we come. We will reaffirm that all people deserve to be treated with respect, justice, equity and compassion.
We welcome you to join us.
Feel free to contact us with any questions you might have, at salemscall@yahoo.com.
This is a free workshop. Donations appreciated, but certainly not required.

A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
