New England Chapter of the National Cartoonists Society Party

Here are a few photos I took yesterday at the New England Chapter of the National Cartoonists Society Party. The party was held at Johnny D's Uptown Restaurant and Music Club in Somerville, MA.  This year's speaker was none other than Ed Steckley, caricaturist, illustrator extraordinaire and all around nice guy.  His presentation was very enjoyable, being both informative and funny.

Here is Ed and his lovely wife Heather...I believe that was his first beer.

Though this photo doesn't show it very clearly, everyone was very excited to see Ed.

Hilary Price cartoonist of the popular Rhymes with Orange strip and 2013 National Cartoonist Society's Cartoonist of the Year nominee also attended. 

Special thanks go out to Mark Parisi and his wife Lynn, who always do a great job putting on these parties!
