This event has ended, but don't worry we have a new forum each week!
In the US and around the world, there’s a dangerous trend with newspapers laying off their cartoonists en masse and many cartoonists are turning to online outlets to keep their voices heard and artwork seen.
A rich history of editorial cartoons exemplifies the power of creative expression and freedom of speech. Satirical, humorous, touching, these unique pieces of artistic commentary lampoon politicians, business and community leaders, and public policy, setting the stage for public discourse.
In September, Columbus will host the bi-annual convention of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists. In association, CMC is pleased to host this special evening event featuring Rob Rogers (Editorial Cartoonist, formerly with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette), Patrick Chappatte (Editorial Cartoonist for Der Spiegel, Canard Enchaîné, Le Temps, and NZZ, formerly of The New York Times), Pulitzer Prize-winner Nick Anderson (Syndicated Editorial Cartoonist, formerly of The Houston Post), and host Tim Feran (Journalist, formerly of The Columbus Dispatch).
