Deadline to submit: February 9th
A GIANT Remix station has arrived at the Ives Main Branch of the New Haven Free Public Library!
Members of the New Haven community are invited to design and make their own Self-Portrait Trading Cards.
Families with children of all ages are invited to think like an artist and illustrate your self-portrait, describe how you contribute to your community, share your most important values, and award yourselves with a community badge. Your self-portraits will be published in a deck of cards AND a photo album lookbook featuring the community members!
Professionally printed cards will be shipped to the library for you to pick up within one month of your submission! You can also check out the full deck of cards and the published photo album lookbook at your library branch or online on the GIANT website - all completely free of charge.
