Events › Craft Lab Grab & Go: Artist Trading Cards (ATCs)

Due to Archer Heights' hosting Early Voting, March's Craft Lab will be a grab & go. Today we will be making Artist Trading Cards (ATCs). ATCs are miniature works of art, sized at 2.5 x 3.5 inches, that are created to be traded to other artists, not sold. They are part of the global mail art movement and can be made using any medium, such as painting, collage, or drawing. ATCs are traditionally traded in face-to-face sessions or online, and the cards often include the artist's name, date, and contact info on the back. More information about ATCs and how and where to trade them will be provided. 

Pick up a Craft Lab Grab & Go: Artist Trading Cards (ATC) kit at the Reference Desk. One per person while supplies last.
