Democracy Under Siege - Cartoonist Rights Special Screening and Conversation

Join Pulitzer Prize winning editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes and Terry Anderson, Executive Director of Cartoonist Rights, for a post screening conversation about free speech and politics today.

Terry Anderson is Executive Director at CARTOONISTS RIGHTS, an international human rights NGO that seeks to assist cartoonists abused, criminalised, displaced, or threatened as a result of their artwork. In 2019 the organisation was made an Index on Censorship Freedom of Expression Awards Fellow in recognition of their campaigning. In 2022 Terry received the Prix Gérard Vandenbroucke at the Salon International de la Caricature, du Dessin de Presse et d’Humour, Europe’s largest festival of editorial cartooning. The award is given to cartoonists that have made a significant contribution in defense of others and the spirit of internationalism; he was the first non-Francophone to receive it. He was a founding member of the Scottish Cartoon Art Studio and a past president of the Scottish Artists Union, representing all visual and applied artists in Scotland.
