Artist Trading Card Workshops
- 7:00 to 9:00 -first Tuesday of the month = October 5, November 2, December 7, February 1, March 1, April 5

The monthly make and trade FREE workshops are offered by our Artist In Residence, and past secondary and elementary art teacher, Kjaer (care) Pedersen. The goal of the workshops are to introduce our community, all ages and of every artistic and non-artistic backgrounds to the joy of creating in a relaxed environment. Kjaer will introduce a variety of different art projects and mediums, allowing participants to have fun while discovering the depth of their own talent. Free play is encouraged. If any teachers enrol, they will learn new skills to bring back to the classroom for any aged student.

ATCs are tiny works of art… the size of a standard baseball trading card, and are swapped by artists in organized trading sessions around the world. The idea is that you trade them with other people who produce cards. They are also highly addictive, since it’s almost impossible to make just one.

ATCs have just one simple rule: they must measure 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 inches or 64 x 89 mm, and be flat enough to slide into a standard trading card sleeve. Media, materials, and techniques are totally up to the individual artist, so cards can be rubber stamped, painted, collaged, screen-printed, or created by any method imaginable. ATCs are ideal for those who like small, quick projects, for testing new techniques, trying out new rubber stamps, or just playing.
