We’ll also be doing a panel on Saturday about an upcoming exhibition that our work is in. Here are the details:

Speaking of the Cartoon Art Museum..gallery manager Andrew Farago sez he’ll shave a Batman logo into his head if folks will donate to the C.A.M. There’s only one week left in the fundraiser..They only need $3000 to put em over the top and send Andrew to the barber’s chair.
*SCHULZ MUSEUM WORKSHOP..
Hey!! I’m teaching a workshop at the world famous Charles Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa on Saturday April 17th. I’ll be talking all about the perils of syndication, self-syndication, and going web-exclusive. There’s only a limited amount of folks who can attend, so I suggest signing up sooner than later. Go here.

*LETTER OF THE WEEK
Hi Mr. Knight,
I am in eighth grade and am working on a National History Day project. I am doing a documentary about how innovative Morrie Turner and “Wee Pals” were during the Civil Rights era. While doing research, I found your “Soul Corner” tribute to Morrie’s 45th anniversary. I think it is great and would love to use it along with a strip Morrie drew about Rainbow Power as the last image in my video — before of course the credits. If you give me permission to use it, I will include a caption stating it was drawn by you. Also you will be mentioned in the credits.
Just so you know, this project is a competition that has three levels — district, state, and nationals. How far I will get — who knows — but I’m hoping to make it all the way.
Thank you in advance,
K.
(Cool!! I’ll keep you up-to-date on how K. does with his doc!-kk)
