An evening with award-winning editorial cartoonist Steve Artley
Event Information
About this Event
The pen is mightier than the sword, especially when it is in the hands of a skillful political cartoonist, such as Steve Artley. Based in Alexandria, VA, he skewers the foibles of the world with his bold and powerful strokes.
Artley's editorial work has appeared in The Washington Post, the New York Times, TIME Magazine, Newsweek and NPR's "Double Take," with his cartoons syndicated throughout the United States and Canada. Artley has twice earned the "Best Editorial Cartoonist of the Year" award from the Minneapolis New Association. Three years in a row, he won First Place in the Virginia Press Association News Contest. He is also a former board member of The Association of American Editorial Cartoonists. You can get a preview of his work at: http://artleytoonsonline.blogspot.com.
A highlight for the evening will be a drawing for an original cartoon, donated by the artist.
This program is co-sponsored by the D.C. chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, the American Society of Journalists and Authors and our host, the Institute on Political Journalism.
