Artist Trading Cards Workshop

The Nelson Museum is launching a monthly drop-in workshop for artists of all ages and skill levels to create and trade art cards! Artist trading cards are miniature works of art specifically made to be freely traded. Created on 2.5 x 3.5-inch card stock using any medium, ATCs encourage artistic experimentation, creativity, and community building rather than consumption.

Blank cards, art making materials, and collage supplies will be available but feel free to bring your own. This FREE program is an all ages drop-in program that will be offered the last Thursday of the month. You can join one, two, or all three programs!


Radio Free Kaslo, April 5, 2024

Ever notice how many songs by Canadian artists are about a place? And speaking of place, what's the fate of small, rural places like so many tiny, isolated Kootenay communities, in the context of an increasingly urbanized world? What can we do to ensure the places we call home don't shrivel up and die — without paving Paradise?

Today's RADIO FREE KASLO trots out 10 things small towns need to consider if they're to have a chance at attracting some new, young folks who appreciate our quirky culture, and are able to add to it in ways those of us who were here first can admire and embrace.

Spoiler alert: Kaslo rocks!
