“No Story Too Small to Trade”

“No Story Too Small to Trade”

The Regina ATC Collective invites you to explore ways to tell stories in “No Story Too Small to Trade”, an exhibition of Artist Trading Cards presented by the Dunlop Art Gallery in collaboration with the MacKenzie Art Gallery at the Regina Public Library, Sherwood Village branch, this October 2 – November 28th, 2010 in Regina, Saskatchewan.

How will you tell your story? An edition of ATC-sized books? A tiny quilt? A multi-card story, mini puppets with a play or an itsy-bitsy stocking filled with your dreams? A painting of your cat? A ‘zine or mini-comic? Stories may be fictional or true, words or pictures.

Submit by June 30, 2010  to:
