Submissions are now open for the 2024 Galway Cartoon Festival.
What already? Yep. We’re extra eager for your lovely cartoons this year. As usual we have three shows that are open to everyone:

BEASTS!
Beasts. Of the air, of the field, of the seas. Beasts of burden and beasts of buoyancy. Beasts in human form. Beasts in human pants.
Beasts from beyond, and from whatever the opposite of beyond is. Just… any sort of beast. What does the word mean to you?
I’ve written it too many times now, I can’t remember.

GENERAL MAYHEM
And then there’s the show for everything else – especially topical and satirical cartoons – from any place and on any issue around all the world.
Including any great gags that happen not to be about beasts.

TARRAING É I NGAEILGE
Which is Irish for “Draw It In Irish“, and is our exhibition specifically for cartoons in that language – the only one of its kind in the world today!
Works selected for Tarraing é i nGaeilge will be shown both in Galway City and on Inis Oírr in the Aran Islands.
