Let’s Begin…
From cave drawings to the Sunday paper, artists have been visualizing ideas -- cartoons -- for centuries. New Yorker cartoonist Liza Donnelly walks us through the many stages every cartoon goes through, starting with an idea and turning into something that connects us on a deeply human level.
Cartoons are relevant to cultures all over the world and relate to a variety to topics. Explain a time when you read or saw a cartoon that affected you and changed the way you viewed the world around you (if you need some inspiration, check out the Dig Deeper section).
