Artists Trading Cards: TRASH
About this Event
Turn trash (or what is left after the party) into art - create and trade mini artworks made from recycled materials! Bring your own trash or use ours!
Artists Trading Cards are miniature works of art, created by hand and exchanged with others—tiny canvases that spark conversation, connection, and creativity. No prior art experience is needed, and people of all ages (children accompanied by an adult) and backgrounds are welcome.
All supplies are provided, with a wide range of materials—from paints and markers to collage paper, and, trash of course.
In conjunction with Canadian Art Hop

What Are Artist Trading Cards (ATCs)?Artist Trading Cards are miniature works of art measuring 2.5 x 3.5 inches—the size of a standard playing card. Originating in the 1990s, the ATC movement began in Switzerland with artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann, who envisioned a way for artists to exchange their creations without monetary transactions. The concept quickly gained global popularity, fostering artistic expression and collaboration. Today, ATCs are celebrated as an inclusive and accessible way to share art and build connections within creative communities.
