- DIY Artist Trading Cards @ FULLER
6:00 pm-7:00 pm August 3, 2023 260 Dover Ave. East Providence, RI 02914  Join us as Jason, a regular patron of the East Providence Public Library, leads this workshop! Artist trading cards (ATCs) are miniature pieces of art that are traded around the world. Artists create, trade, and collect art at organized “swap” events, either in person or online. It is a great way to meet other artists and share your work. The only official rule for ATCs is the size: 2.5″ x 3.5″ How did the movement start? In 1997, M. Vanci Stirnemann, a Swiss artist, created 1200 cards by hand as part of an exhibit. On the last day, he invited others to create their own cards and trade with him during the closing reception. After that, the movement took off as other artists organized major “swap” events! Today, there are ATC swaps in almost every major city around the world. There are also many online swaps. Most swaps are open to any media, materials or techniques as long as the card fits into a standard trading card sleeve. Art can be original, limited edition or series. Artists should include the following information on the back of the card: name, contact information (email or address), title of piece, and number if it is part of an edition or series. ATCs are traded, not sold. However, there are some artists who choose to sell cards. Cards that are sold are called Art Card Editions or Originals (ACEO). Registration NOT required.

He’s finished his swimming lessons and passed his swim test, and he’s a great jumper, so he’s not scared at all. ‘Looks easy, ‘ says Jabari, watching the other kids take their turns. But when his dad squeezes his hand, Jabari squeezes back. He needs to figure out what kind of special jump to do anyway, and he should probably do some stretches before climbing up onto the diving board. In a sweetly appealing tale of overcoming your fears, newcomer Gaia Cornwall captures a moment between a patient and encouraging father and a determined little boy you can’t help but root for.” (Taken from Catalog) The goal of the StoryWalk® is to increase children’s interest in books and reading while encouraging healthy outdoor activity for all ages,
and reconnecting children and adults to nature.
