HISTORY
Artist Trading Cards have grown in popularity from their invention in 1997 by Swiss artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann to a worldwide movement. The Campbell River Art Gallery was the first location in British Columbia to host an ATC event in 1999 and is proud to continue the tradition of bringing artists together.
