Cascadia Art Museum is excited to announce the return of our highly anticipated annual exhibition of vintage Christmas cards by noted Northwest artists and designers. Our collection dates from 1909 through the present with many produced at mid-century.
For most of the 20th century, regional artists created original works of art to send to their fellow artists, friends and families to celebrate the Holiday Season. The cards were created using an array of various mediums such as woodcut and linoleum blocks; etching and drypoints; screenprints, as well as watercolor, oil, collage and other materials.
A book featuring many of the cards from our collection is available here and in our gift store.
