Artist and educator Paula Beardell Krieg leads an exploration of origami, geometry, and optical illusion, introducing chirality — shapes that come in left- and right-handed mirror versions that cannot be perfectly matched. Participants fold an origami cube and create surprising pieces that fit together in clever, unexpected ways. Thanks to the generous support of Two Sigma, the program is free to attendees.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/free-family-fridays-the-chiral-cube-a-mind-bending-origami-p-91650/", "official_url": "https://momath.org/family-fridays", "image": "https://noky.io/images/f4ce40e17107762d2fbf6f6e42bb5656cd51349b74ffe03430123ff4deb01bc5-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-06T18:30:00-05:00", "end": "2026-11-06T20:00:00-05:00", "place": "National Museum of Mathematics", "address": "5th Avenue 225, 10010 New York", "tickets": ""}, {"start": "2026-12-11T18:30:00-05:00", "end": null, "place": "National Museum of Mathematics", "address": "5th Avenue 225, 10010 New York", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Unlimited, MoMath’s mix-n-mingle program for middle and high school students; “Loops and Lines: Exploring math through beads and bracelets” featuring MOST Fellow Jasmine Camero", "start": "2026-11-07T18:30:00-05:00", "end": "2026-11-07T20:30:00-05:00", "place": "National Museum of Mathematics", "address": "5th Avenue 225, 10010 New York", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "category": "kids-family", "tags": ["science/mathematics"], "description": "Unlimited is MoMath's mix-n-mingle evening for middle and high school students, a parent-free night of hands-on math activities, dynamic exhibits, cookies, hot cocoa, and New York City's only interactive, light-up Voronoi dance floor.

Titled 'Loops and Lines: Exploring math through beads and bracelets' and led by MOST Fellow Jasmine Camero, it invites students to discover how mathematicians find and study the points that make up curves, then make a bead bracelet of their own.
