The Origami Holiday Tree will return to view on November 20, 2023.
The theme of this year’s 13-foot tree is Proboscideans on Parade, featuring garlands and origami models inspired by the new exhibition The Secret World of Elephants.

Among the more than 1,000 origami pieces decorating the tree will be intricately designed models of elephants and elephant relatives, including the wooly mammoth, as well as those depicting iconic Museum exhibits like the Blue Whale and Tyrannosaurus rex.

Produced in partnership with OrigamiUSA, the Origami Holiday Tree is delightfully decorated with hand-folded paper models created by local, national, and international origami artists.

Learn more about the making of the Origami Holiday Tree and find out how to make your own origami models!
