combination of words and pictures. They use their work to tell stories, instruct and
guide, and offer commentary on life and society. Cartoons can be used to present
important issues to millions of people in an easily understood form. One of the most
important qualities of a good cartoonist is the ability to present an idea in just a few
words and a drawing. The drawings usually feature exaggerated actions that somehow
reveal human nature. Sometimes cartoonists dream up their ideas, but they often read
and study the news to get fresh concepts for their work.
Join us on March 28 as cartoonist E.J. Farbarik discusses and sketches his career in
cartooning.
