SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- The Cartoon Art Museum announced its programming for this year’s San Diego Comic-Con International, to be held at the San Diego Convention Center from July 21-24, 2016. This year will mark the tenth annual CAM Sketch-a-thon, which features a host of artists donating their time and talents to support the museum in its fundraising efforts for exhibitions and programming.  

This year’s roster includes professional animators, graphic novelists, newspaper strip cartoonists, political cartoonists, comic book illustrators, webcartoonists, underground cartoonists and self-publishers, providing the Cartoon Art Museum’s booth with one of the most diverse artistic populations at Comic-Con.
