the miniature? Are you an Artist Trading Card (ATC)
enthusiast or would you like to try your hand at
creating these fantastic mini works of art? Then make
plans to join us as we launch the new and exciting
"ATC Workshop & Swap" held the second Thursday of
each month. Come and create with others in a true
workshop atmosphere . . . or just come and see what's
going on with other artists, ask questions, share
information, and become inspired. At each workshop,
you'll be given a monthly theme for the next month and
asked to create 6 ATCs using that theme and your
imagination. Begin work on your cards then or take the
idea home with you and create at your leisure during
the month. Bring your completed cards to the next
month's workshop, where you'll trade with others in
the group. What a great way to have fun and meet other
