Biography
Australian Cartoonist Association is the world’s oldest cartooning organisation!
From 1924, The ACA was known as the Australian Black and White Artists’ Club. Our first objective is to “improve the standing of ‘black and white’ artists in Australia and to stimulate public interest in ‘black and white’ art.” The second objective is “to promote competitions and/or awards with the object of improving the standards of ‘black and white’ art.”
Since 2001 we have been a national organisation of working cartoonists, known as the Australian Cartoonists’ Association with members in every state in Australia.
At Book Expo Australia the ACA will be running the Interactive Drawing Area with classes in and talks on drawing and cartooning under the current President Jules Faber
