Sierpinski Triangle & Tetrahedron Project 

The Sierpenski Triangle and Tetrahedron Project is coordinated by Amber Buntin of College of the Redwoods.   The goal is to assemble Sierpinski tetrahedrons that people make at schools, home or at the festival into a large three dimentional Sierpinski Tetrahedron. 


Please make your tetrahedrons on tagboard.   A great trick to fold the pyramids is to use a ruler and ballpoint pen to draw a heavy line along the fold lines.  This creases the paper for beautiful folds.  

You can also color your tetrahedron and bring it to the festival flat.   We will help you put it together and it will save it from being damaged in transit
