ARTIST TRADING CARDS Artist Trading Cards, or ATCs, miniature works of art. ATCs are collectables, a brilliant idea from Swiss Artist M Vanci Stirnemann, based on the older sports-themed trading cards.

To be an ATC, the cards, like the sports trading cards they are derived from, must be 2.5”x3.5”, or 64x89mm’, and have the artist’s name, contact information, title of the ATC on the back. That’s all! 01-983 MAKE & TAKES Make & takes are ATC workshops where participants learn new techniques. Some supplies provided for $3 fee. Advance registration not necessary.
