Professional Cartooning Organisations
Published by Matt Glover July 31st, 2006 in Professional OrganisationsHere’s a list of professional cartooning organisations from around the world. If you know of any I’ve missed, please add them in the comments section or email me privately. I will endeavor to keep this list as up to date as possible, but keep in mind that URL’s will often change. I have also included groups focussing more on illustration than cartooning.
See this post for why I think it’s a good idea to join. Membership details should be obtained directly from the organisation you are interested in.
