I don’t show my face in public much, but I’ll be traveling to Colombia in a couple of weeks, and I’ll be at some cool public events for editorial cartoon fans.

There is a rather ambitious meeting of cartoonists from around the world in Bogotá, called Foro Internacional de caricaturistas por la paz y la libertad de opinión 2010 ““ that’s the poster for the conference at the right.
