The Center for Cartoon Studies in association with The Beat is calling for submissions to their
2022 Cartoonist Studio Prize in two categories: Best Print Comic and the Best Webcomic.
Submissions in both categories must be received by January 30, 2022.
Each year the Cartoonist Studio Prize will be awarded to work that exemplifies excellence in cartooning. The creators of two exceptional comics for this year will be awarded $1,000 each, and this year each will receive a Wacom One Creative Pen Display. The winners will be selected by The Beat and the Schulz Library staff at The Center for Cartoon Studies (CCS).
Eligible comics will have been written in (or translated into) English and published or posted online between January 1st, 2021 and December 31st, 2021. Those who are currently enrolled at CCS or are faculty are not eligible for consideration. Cartoonists may submit one entry in each of the two categories. Furthermore, the panel of judges reserves the right to consider work that was not submitted officially.
Submissions in both categories are now open. You can find the submission form for print comics here, and the submission form for webcomics here.
