"CARTOON ART TOUCHES OUR LIVES EVERY DAY,
CHEERS US, THRILLS US, RECORDS OUR HISTORY,
IMPARTS PHILOSOPHY, ATTACKS THE POMPOUS
AND THE CORRUPT, REFLECTS OUR PERSONALITIES
AND OUR SOCIETY."
Mort Walker, Founder/Chairman

America's first and only international museum
devoted to the collection, preservation,
exhibition and study of a world-class repository

masterpieces from its Permanent collection
alongside special changing exhibitions. It also
presents educational and public programs.
The Museum opened its first floor to the Public

acclaimed 160,000-work collection. The entire

expected to be completed by 1998.
