COLUMBUS, Ohio — Cartoon Crossroads Columbus has named the winners of awards that honor established creators and newcomers. The awards were part of the annual CXC festival that ran Oct. 6-9 in venues across Columbus, drawing thousands of guests and creators to a city that is increasingly a center for the cartoon arts.
Keith Knight, the cartoonist behind the K Chronicles and (th)ink and the television series Woke, won the Master Cartoonist Award.
“By using humor, Keith has exposed the insecurities and hypocrisy of modern society for almost three decades now,” says CXC Artistic Director Jeff Smith, “His cartoons ring true because they are honest.”
