July Membership Gathering: Meet Cartoonist Brian Ponshock

Join Antigo Visual Arts for our July Membership Gathering as we welcome local cartoonist and illustrator Brian Ponshock for an entertaining and inspiring look into the art of cartooning.

Brian will share his creative journey—from his early work and the creation of Yaffle to illustrating children’s books and developing the humorous cartoons that have become his signature style. Learn how he transforms everyday observations into memorable characters and laugh-out-loud illustrations while exploring the creative process behind cartoon art.

Whether you’re an artist, cartoon enthusiast, or simply curious about the world of illustration, this is a wonderful opportunity to hear from one of our region’s talented creative voices.
