Can you Draw This? Educating America’s Cartoon and Comic Artists

Norman Rockwell Museum 9 Glendale Rd / Rte 183, Stockbridge

Buy Tickets


$25 (Free Museum Admission) Free for Members and kids

Join award-winning illustrator Ryan Hartley Smith and NRM Chief Curator Stephanie Haboush Plunkett for lively talk about the art of cartoons and comics. The discussion will focus on the dramatic evolution of the field and the resulting changes in how cartooning is taught --from the introduction of the popular Famous Artists Cartoon Course, in 1956, to the diverse stylistic and storytelling approaches of our time. Hartley Smith will illuminate cartooning’s rich history and lead participants through hands-on exercises with cartoon art—no drawing experience required!

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
