The Festival of Cartoon Art at Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. The festival began with a pre-session today. Most were academic speeches about the art of sequential storytelling. The wrap-up was by the great, scholarly R.C. Harvey. Harvey spoke of cartoonist Milton Caniff, who is being honored during the entire festival Harvey has a brand new 900+ page book on the life of Caniff. I picked one up and look forward to reading it. The drawing is of R.C. addressing the crowd.
Later we visited the Thurber House, where humorist James Thurber once lived, and got to view art by the Great Lakes Chapter of the National Cartoonists Society.
