MSCA – January 2026 Dinner Gathering, Art Show Info, And More News

Greetings all! 
The 2025 year was crazy busy for the MSCA, including the current “Art of the Game” art show which is now running at the Memphis Jewish Community Center.  There is a copy/paste paragraph below for all your socials including the poster.   Installation images are attached.
I’m looking forward to 2026!  Not just our accomplishments in promoting cartoon as art, but in our individual accomplishments.
Speaking of which: what did you find your greatest accomplishment in 2025?  What do you hope to achieve in 2026?  Maybe something you share can be inspirational to the other members in our mid-month newsletter.  Looking forward to hearing from you.
Don’t forget to forward this to your artist friends!  It’s free to join in, just show up!
Likewise, if you have any event news and dates for 2026, please let me know and I’ll add it to the calendar.  Stay up to date at www.midsouthcartoonists.com and www.drawingfunny.com
Happy New Year!
Sincerely, your Looney-Tooney Pres,
Kevin Williams

MSCA May Days & More Event News

Hey gang- well, this spring has already been busy. Last weekend Nicki and I attended the Earth Day celebration here in Hernando. It was the first Hernando Farmers Market of the year on the Courthouse Square, and the DeSoto Arts Council had their spring art fest going on there as well. The weather was mostly overcast, but mild temps most of the time we were there and a decent breeze blowing, so it was a very pleasant way to spend a Saturday. Continue reading →

Greetings, MSCA’erses,

Sorry for not getting a mid-month email about (thus making this one long), but we have several bits of information that can be money-making opportunities, hang-outs, and more.  PLEASE LET ME KNOW if you can come to events that I need dedicated folks for upcoming events so I can add you to the list.  If you have responded, I won’t need another reply.  I do need at least 6 of us involved for an event to succeed.
Help me get news collected and get your details to me before the last Monday of the month (if you send photos or images we can get them on the website, too).  I’m certain I’m forgetting something, so if another email comes don’t hate on me.
Thanks for being here with me,
Yer MSCA Prez,
Kev!n W!ll!ams
