Our very first ATCitup Art-O-Thon

Don’t miss out on the art fun!

Welcome to the ATCitup Art-O-Thon

The Art-o-Thon is open themed!! Sponsored by our ATCitup fundraisers

This is intended to be a crazy art making frenzy of fun and companionship. Lets bring lots of life to our server while creating and trading up a storm.

We are trying something new this year and the Art-o-thon will take the place of the November Trade Theme

*You can still receive a November Happy Mail Envelope!
How?? – Mail an envelope by November 22, 2021 with your mailing address label and a return stamp or postage to receive a return envelope. As there won’t be a theme to “swap” for that month return envelopes will instead contain a vinyl sticker, postcard and hopefully other goodies. They will be mailed back December 1st that way everyone who wants definitely gets some Happy mail in their mailbox this holiday season!

When: November 19 – 22, 2021 4 days of non stop art and fun! Make and trade as much art as you want, play mini challenges, socialize and win prizes! Please be supportive and encouraging of each other in the artwork that is shared.

Where:
ATCitupwithfriends Discord Server

The FULL details on everything you need to know to participate are on the #ATCitup-art-o-thon channel of Discord.
Are you a member and not yet signed up on discord?? Let me know and I’ll send you the invite link. Worried about YET ANOTHER social platform? Don’t worry it’s really not like that. Think of it only as live chat rooms where you can talk/type to people in real time. Basically like one big DM but with easy to navigate channels.

How to Participate:
– Be active  anytime during the 4 day art-o-thon on the Discord ATCitup-art-o-thon channel
– Chat, create art, share wips, post completed art, trade your art, play in the challenges!
– Artwork for trade during the art-o-thon should be share in this channel.
– Yes you can pre-make art/cards and share them during the week of the art-o-thon. This will help more members see and ask to trade with you as I know these dates might not work for everyone to make art. But you should still come and chat, socialize and be supportive of others.
– You can also hang out live in our Voice/Video ArtJam channel!
– All trades done during the Art-o-Thon are personal trades between individuals. But you should mail out your trades within a week of the Art-o-thon ending.
– You can share on Instagram as well to the #atcitupwithfriends and #atcitupartothon hashtags – but that is not mandatory

  • You do not have to participate in challenges, as long as you are making art, sharing, trading or chatting in our art-o-thon during those 4 days that counts as participating in the art-o-thon
Lots of Prizes!
There are 8 total prize packages during the Art-o-Thon
Daily Prize Package contents, 1 winner a day, for 4 days:
