My Artist Trading Cards
ATCs started in Switzerland in 1997 and have since become something of a cultural phenomena with ATC trading sessions now taking place in cities and towns around the globe. Many artists who make ATCs use the Internet to show their cards and to find other artists willing to trade cards by mail or to share ideas, but organized face-to-face ATC sessions are the preferred means of meeting other artists and trading cards. Today, you will find ATC swap sessions happening in most major cities around the world.
What are ATCs?
Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) are miniature works of art, usually done on card stock, that are traded between artists. They can be made with any media, materials, or techniques. They can be produced as one-of-a-kind originals, in limited editions, or in a series based on a particular theme or subject. It’s all up to the individual artist.
What are the rules for ATCs?
They should measure 2.5 x 3.5 inches (64 X 89 mm), be traded for other cards—not sold, be flat enough to fit into a plastic trading card sleeve, and be signed and dated on the back of the card.
