Having read about the combined Association of American Editorial Cartoonists – Association of Canadian Cartoonists convention from a Yankee’s perspective, I think it well worthwhile to read about the combined Association of Canadian Cartoonists – Association of American Editorial Cartoonists joint conference from a Canuck’s frame of reference.
Montreal recently hosted a dynamic convention that brought together cartoonists, scholars, and enthusiasts, and I was fortunate enough to attend. For a profession full of hired cynics, these gatherings have a way of inspiring and energizing even the most jaded minds. The atmosphere of shared experiences and creative exchange can be a rare boost for those of us who often take a critical lens to the world.
