Talking Hamilton on Ferdinand Day

Sunday is Ron’s day but we’re here for Marcus,
the week day Dennis the Menace cartoonist.

From The Salisbury (North Carolina) Post:

On Thursday, Aug. 26, at 12:30 p.m., Marcus Hamilton will illuminate visitors to his artistic collections named, “Two Dream Careers: From Illustrator to Cartoonist,” now showing as part of Waterworks’ summer exhibition, IMAGINE. During this third segment of the museum’s Summer Artists Series, Hamilton will sign his original Dennis the Menace self-portrait, which he gifted to Waterworks Visual Arts Center in 1998.

And then…

Returning on Saturday, Aug. 28, Marcus Hamilton will be joined by members of the Southeast Chapter of the National Cartoonists Society. Following their business agenda at the arts center, their meeting will open up to the public at 1 p.m. for the keynote address by cartoonist and animation artist, Eddie Pittman. Pittman animated such favorites as “Mulan,” “Tarzan,” “Lilo & Stitch,” “Fantasia 2000,” and “The Emperor’s New Groove.” Additionally, he was a story artist for “Veggie Tales” and “Phineas and Ferb,” and was the voice of Darth Vader in “Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars.”
