Monthly Artist Trading Card Meeting TODAY

The O’Connor Senior Center will host a regular monthly Artist Trading Card meeting on Monday, March 25 from 1:00 – 2:00 p.m. This meeting is free and open to anyone interested in making and trading ATCs. Refreshments will be served.

March program: Stamping and printing techniques are a quick and easy way to begin an ATC with fabulous results!  Margaret Sidenstick is a Design Team member and artist at Scrappin’ In the City, a scrapbooking and creative resource in Knoxville.  Margaret will lead participants through a stamping and printing exercise that will lead to ATCs and other applications.

No art experience is required. The goal is to have fun, create something and connect with others by trading and sharing cards.  History and background of ATCs, instruction, materials, prompts and creative ideas will be provided by Tim Wiegenstein, Creative Aging Teaching Artist.  No age requirements apply for this program; ATCs are for any age, and intergenerational events are encouraged.

The O’Connor Center is located at 611 Winona Street, Knoxville, TN 37917.  For more information, call 865) 523-1135, or email info@oconnorcenter.org
