Register for Mission Belonging’s yearly event A Day of Belonging.
Come meet local DC area Makers - I’m one of them - and sample the best local food, beverages, & drinks. Get some holiday shopping done, while you eat your way around the event.
Early Bird tickets are available now and part of the ticket sales will benefit Dog Tag Bakery. I am thrilled to be a part of this event. For those of you that don’t know, I am a proud graduate of Dog Tag’s Fellowship program. It’s a huge reason I was able to start my small business. When you visit the bakery in Georgetown, try one of the seasonal items. My favorite menu items are the snickerdoodle cookie and the honey thyme biscuit.
I’ll update with more info as we get closer.
ARTIST TRADING CARDS
Artist Trading Cards are a way to exchange art with other artists. There are very few rules; the substrate is 3.5”x2.5”, normally the backs are signed, dated, titled, etc. & they are never sold, just traded. You can use any medium to decorate your cards. This is a fun way to try new techniques, reuse unfinished art pieces, & repurpose/recycle junk mail & other paper scraps. If you’re coming to “A Day of Belonging” this would be a great way to introduce yourself to other attendees.
Suggested Supplies:
3.5”x2.5” Substrate
Any mediums you want to use to decorate your cards
Some of the mediums I use are watercolors/inks, vintage papers, photos from my travels, washi tape, & markers.
Additional supplies include: glue or double sided tape, scissors or paper cutter
