Motoko teaches the art of creative paper-folding for beginners, sharing step-by-step instructions that make this ancient Japanese tradition fun and accessible for kids and adults alike. Materials are provided.

A native of Osaka, Japan, Motoko has performed storytelling and mime professionally since 1993. Her repertoire includes Asian folktales, Rakugo and Zen tales, and mime vignettes, as well as personal stories from her childhood in Japan and life as an immigrant in the U.S. Her appearances include PBS’ Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood and a tour with the CarnegieKids in Miyazaki project sponsored by Carnegie Hall.

Now in its 22nd season, the International Storytelling Center’s renowned Storytelling Live performance series features 20 nationally known storytellers in live concerts at 2 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday, from May through October. Special events are also offered throughout the season, including evening shows, virtual concerts, and holiday programs.
