Dance, Dazzle and Draw

Enjoy some entertainment at the Cartoon Museum to celebrate the centenary of World War I, with all sorts of 1914-styled shenanigans on offer. Wartime cocktails will be available to give you the confidence to try vintage dance moves – including the turkey trot and grizzly bear – to ragtime tunes. Or,  if you'd rather leave it to the experts, catch dance troupe Hot Jazz Rag performing live. Comics artists Woodrow Phoenix and Zoom Rockman will also be there to talk about '1914 Day By Day', a project the two illustrators are part of that's currently showing at the Cartoon Museum. Along with ten other artists, the pair were commissioned to draw postcards that illustrate 1914 through day-by-day accounts. And if that gets your inspiration flowing, try your hand at designing and drawing your own postcards with Rockman and cartoonist Steve Merchant.
