Library resources for the Bridgeport community

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

 

Welcome to the Artist Trading Card/Happy Mail Program!

Share what you’ve made, get art in return and make new friends. We’re happy you’re here!

 

     

ATCs and Happy Mail

Artist Trading Cards are card-sized pieces of art. Artists and crafty people use playing cards, baseball cards or paper, which is cut down to 2.5"x3.5" to make portable art! 

Happy Mail is stash-busting fun! Get out your papers, tools and tape to create and share your stash with other crafty crafters using the post office. Who doesn't love to receive art in the mail?
