The ᐊᐧᓴᑲᒪᐱᐊᐧᐠ wasakamapiwak [They all sit in a circle.] collective invite you for a special Artists Trading Cards session for Indigenous folx!

ATCs are miniature works of art, created by hand and exchanged with others—tiny canvases that spark conversation, connection, and creativity. No prior art experience is needed. You are welcome to bring some of your own supplies and we will also provide a wide range of materials—from paints and markers to collage paper, and more.

What Are Artist Trading Cards (ATCs)?Artist Trading Cards are miniature works of art measuring 2.5 x 3.5 inches—the size of a standard playing card. Originating in the 1990s, the ATC movement began in Switzerland with artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann, who envisioned a way for artists to exchange their creations without monetary transactions. The concept quickly gained global popularity, fostering artistic expression and collaboration. Today, ATCs are celebrated as an inclusive and accessible way to share art and build connections within creative communities.

Workshop by donation starting at $10, please register, Ages 16+

WORKSHOP Part 1: Sat Jan 17, 10am-3pm, AND; WORKSHOP Part 2: Sat Jan 24, 10am-3pm. This workshop requires that you attend both days for a successful result.

Come to this beginner workshop and tan your own beautiful jewel-like fish leather! You will learn how to oil tan or turn fish skins to parchment. The resulting skin/leather will be strong, beautiful and versatile. It will not have a “fishy” smell but may remind you of a lovely summer day at the lake. As a bonus an indigo vat will be available if you choose to turn your fish skin a gorgeous blue.

Sparrow Artist-in-residence, Metis artist Hilary McDonnell, will show you the steps from fleshing and cleaning to softening and drying so you will go home with a beautiful piece of fish leather to start your next project or just display and admire.

Fish skin leather can be used in many ways including sewing projects and book arts. Examples of sewn pieces and book arts pieces will be available to look at for inspiration.

Come dressed in clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty as well as an old apron. Indigo will dye anything it lands on. All supplies and written instructions will be provided. There will be a one hour break at noon so please bring a bagged lunch.

About Hilary McDonnell

My name is Hilary McDonnell. I am a Metis artist, living and working in Moh’kins’tsis (Calgary) on Treaty Seven land where the Bow River meets the Elbow River. I was born and raised in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan in the lush area on the banks of the North Saskatchewan. I am hard at work learning traditional Metis skills, to bring them into my art practice today.

As a printmaker I love the delicate but extremely strong qualities of paper. As I began working with tanned fish leather, I discovered that it has the same transparent, textural and strong qualities of washi paper. I am bringing this beautiful material to making artist books and wearable accessories.

I have a BFA from ACAD (now AUArts) in Printmaking. As well as creating beaded art I make lithography, linocut, drypoint and etching prints and artist books. I am an active member of Alberta Printmakers Society. I am also a member of the Wasakamapiwak Collective.

The Medicine Wheel and Smudging are an integral part of many First Nations and Indigenous cultures throughout Turtle Island. Chantal Chagnon shares the Teachings, Stories, History and Science behind Smudging and the Medicine Wheel. Smudging is a sacred way to cleanse, balance, understand and connect to Mother Earth. The medicines used honour the teachings of Four Directions of the Medicine Wheel. We honour and value each medicine is part of the Medicine Wheel that balances and sustains us. We will gain a deeper understanding of the balance and stories for each direction and Plant. Each individual may have a stronger connection to a particular medicine or direction depending on what is needed in their life at the time.

Chantal delves into the science behind the Medicines and explains how every Nation has their own unique way of looking at and learning from the Medicine Wheel. Although traditions, medicines and stories may be slightly different depending on the Nation, Region or individual sharing the teachings, the message is always of balance and healing. Chantal will share the importance of protocol and how to harvest medicine sustainably and respectfully. Chantal will explain the significance and balance of the Smudge, why we do it, the science and story behind it as we participate in a Traditional Smudge ceremony together.

Chantal will then lead us into creating a Medicine Bag. Medicine Bags, also called Medicine Pouches, carry our four sacred medicines close to our hearts. They protect and guide us along our journey, reminding us of our connection to Mother Earth, all living things and ourselves. Sometimes they contain stones, shells, feathers, keepsakes or items of significance in addition to the sacred medicines.

Materials we will use in this workshop include:

• The Four Sacred Medicines - Sweetgrass, Cedar, Sage and Cansasa (Red Willow Bark in Place of Tobacco)

• Deer, Moose, Elk or Buffalo Hide for the Bags

• Suede or Leather Lacing

• Bone or Antler Beads for Button Closure

• Sinew for Stitching

All materials are included, and no experience is required—just bring your curiosity!

What does *home* mean to you? Is it a place, a memory, a community, or a feeling that lives within you? For some, home is where they’ve come from. For others, it’s where they are building a future. For some, home is deeply connected to ancestral land, traditions, and resilience.

Sparrow Artspace invites you to explore these ideas at an **Artists Trading Card (ATC) session**. ATCs are miniature works of art, created by hand and exchanged with others—tiny canvases that spark conversation, connection, and creativity.

This community art-making experience is connected to our upcoming **HOME Residency**, which brings together newcomer and Indigenous artists to reflect on, reimagine, and share perspectives on home through art.

Come create, share, and trade art that speaks to what HOME means to you. Leave with a pocket-sized collection of original artworks that hold many voices and many visions of home.

No prior art experience is needed, and people of all ages and backgrounds are welcome. All supplies are provided, with a wide range of materials—from paints and markers to collage paper, and more.
