City-wide celebration of cartoon art helmed by the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum, showcasing the art of cartooning and encouraging next-generation talent.
Cartoon Crossroads Columbus returns to Columbus from April 15 to 18, 2027. It's a city-wide celebration of cartoon art in all its forms, helmed by the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum. The event is built for creators and audiences alike, and it spreads across the city rather than sticking to a single venue.
At its core, CXC serves as a showcase for both the city of Columbus and the art of cartooning. A good part of that focus goes toward encouraging the next generation of cartoon talent, so it's as much about the people coming up in the medium as it is about the work already out there. Because it's a city-wide event, you'll find it popping up in different spots around town over the four days.
