The creators of Hot One Inch Action present CARDED! – a one-night only show of art, music and fast paced trading action. The work of fifty artists is presented on trading cards and made available for art lovers to collect and trade. These 2.5"x3.5" cards are displayed on the gallery wall and the audience is offered the opportunity to buy random cards in mixed packs of five for $5. If you purchase a pack that doesn’t have your desired card, trade with the people around you. How bad do you want that card!?

This show is produced and curated by Chris Bentzen and Jim Hoehnle. Check out our other show Hot One Inch Action.

Check out a feature on the 2010 show on GroundedTV.
