Have you ever wanted to create your own tarot deck but never knew how to start? This 4-part workshop series with tarot deck creator and author Charlie Claire Burgess will guide you through the process of deck creation, from inspiration to production. This is not an art class because you don’t need to be a trained artist to create a tarot deck—Charlie themself is proof of that! Rather, this series explores the attributes of a powerful, functional, and unique tarot, demystifies the printing and production process, and empowers you to develop your own vision and style — even system — as you begin creating cards.

In class, you’ll learn about the moving parts that make the existing tarot system work, such as archetype and symbolism. You’ll begin distilling your own archetypes and interpretations, finding your own symbols, and developing your own unique iconography. In between classes, you’ll dive head-first into creating new cards each week, with the goal of having a meaningful start on a tarot deck by the end of the series, along with the knowledge needed to follow it through to revision and production.
With practical, theoretical, and creative guidance on areas from color palette to trim sizes, from symbology to crowdfunding, this series will provide everything you need to create your first tarot deck (apart from the art supplies!) The live class series begins on August 5th and ends on August 26th. Recordings will be uploaded as they become available. Note that your purchase does not include a ticket to the live gathering; this listing only includes access to the recordings of the class series.
