SF’23: Cartoonist Confab Recap

Two weeks ago, editorial cartoonists from across North America (and a few from Down Under) convened in San Francisco — and the reviews are in!

Mike Peterson‘s (now) award-winning coverage of the joint AAEC/ACC convention rolled out over several days on The Daily Cartoonist: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.

Ted Rall & Scott Stantis did their weekly podcast live from the event with guest AAEC President Jack Ohman in what proved to be hard-hitting 90-minute discussion about the state of news media in America today. The whole thing is worth listening to: click here.

The Cartoon Art Museum posted a report from the Friday Night Opening Reception on Facebook.

The biggest field report by far came from Canadian cartoonist Graeme MacKay, who wrote an entire article about the long weekend for his blog. https://mackaycartoons.net/2023/10/15/sunday-october-15-2023/

LOCHER FELLOWSHIP

The AAEC John Locher Memorial Fellowship is awarded each year to one early-career cartoonist whose work demonstrates clear opinions and strong artistry on political and social topics. Deadline to be considered is the end of March.

The Locher Fellow will receive a one-year Regular membership in the AAEC, be a guest of the CXC Festival — held every fall in Columbus, Ohio — and have the opportunity to meet with editorial cartoonists during the year of the Fellowship for portfolio reviews and career advice.
