Cartoon Campaign
Be An #ArtsHero is honored to partner with the gifted artists who belong to Counterpoint. In a movement forged at the intersection of art and politics, who better than political cartoonists to illuminate the plight of the Arts & Culture sector? Political cartoonists are valuable Arts Workers who, with razor-sharp wit and incredible artistry, help shape the political discourse, expose hypocrisy, and change minds. These political cartoons represent a powerful statement of art as advocacy and our hope is that the President and Congress will see these, reflect upon their implications, and make sure that the creative economy, which remains devastated, will get the relief it needs to survive.
More than two dozen award-winning and Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonists illustrate compelling points of view on their own particular struggles of the editorial cartooning industry and the Arts & Culture sector crisis at large. View the cartoons below!
