MEET UPS
Meet Ups are regular occasions where we hang out & make art. If you've been looking for a low-key way to sharpen your skills and connect with fellow creatives, why not come hang out with like-minded artists, share a few laughs, and maybe even leave with fresh inspiration ...
No experience necessary so come on out & join us. You are very welcome!
Artist Trading Cards
LAST THURSDAY OF THE MONTH
5:30-7:30PM
WESTVIEW BOWLING
** FAMILY FRIENDLY **
The last Thursday in October is Halloween so we'll be skipping ATC night in favour of candy & costumes. The next one will be:
Thu, Nov 29 @ 5:30PM
​
Do you know about Artist Trading Cards? Whether you do or don't, we hope you'll join us for ATC nights with host Harvey Chometsky.
In short, Artist Trading Cards are self-made unique works or small series, signed and dated on the reverse by the artist/producer, exchanged and collected by the people who participate in this collaborative event. There are only 2 "rules": the cards must be 2.5"x3.5" (the same as modern hockey cards or baseball cards), and they are only to be traded, not sold.
​
Make them ahead of time, or make them on the spot. We'll bring some blanks and other art supplies.
​
And this is a family-friendly event!
​
Sign up here for friendly reminders :)
