Artist Trading Card Collages
February 13 @ 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM
Participants are invited to make a collage in response to the exhibition “Nick Brandt: Environmental Photographer” based on the practice of Field Notes and how we capture the world around us through drawings, notes and observations. All collage materials will be provided! Next, participants will use a template to generate a collection of Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) from their collage. “ATCs” are 2.5” x 3.5” artworks that are same size as standard playing cards. ATCs can be traded, gifted, and mailed! Each participant will leave the workshop with a small collection of new artworks from their fellow participants.
