News From Our EL PREZ Kev- MSCA: Sketchy Saturday, Podcasts, Outreach, and MORE!!

From MSCA President Kevin L. Williams:

Salutations Toony Wordsmiths, Ink Slingers, Pencil Pushers, and Digital Doodlers,

Thanks to all who made it out to the March Dinner Gathering!  The photos look like we had a great crowd.  I was sad to not be with you all, but was also glad to visit New York and the Jim Henson Creature Shop.  I have some images below to share from the Museum of the Moving Image – I’m always intrigued by concept art and story boards and hope you find them inspiring, too.

MSCA: March Dinner Gathering And 2027 Art Shows

From MSCA President Kevin L. Williams:

Greetings Pencil Pushers, Ink Slingers, Digital Doodlers, Wordsmiths, and Enthusiasts,

Always glad to see everyone out for the dinner gatherings!

“I’m not local to the MSCA, how can I participate?”  That’s a question I’ve heard before, and my suggestion is:

1) Share our emails to folks who may be interested in comics and cartoons, and ask them to sign up at midsouthcartoonists@gmail.com;
2) Come to art shows, buy comics, visit www.midsouthcartoonists.com and listen to www.drawingfunny.com podcasts;
3) Share our posts on social media;
4) Print and share posters, or save and share to your socials;
5) Create your own cartoonist meet-ups in your city;
6) and most importantly, per our Purpose, “Promote Cartoon as Art!”

I’m certain there are other ways to participate, what do you think you can do from afar? Anything I didn’t think of here?  Let me know.

Have news to help the MSCA promote Cartoons as Art?  Please send it to me before the last Monday of the month so I can share with everyone.

While we’d always hope you’d like to get the emails to share in news of promoting cartoon as art, if you need to be removed from the email list let me know and I’ll get that taken care of.

Sincerely,
Kevin Williams,
MSCA President
