Sponsored by and held at the Center for Cartoon Studies in White River Junction.
Reception is 5 - 8 pm with a presentation at 6 pm.
James Sturm draws a quiet\, reflective\, and beautiful portrait of eastern Europe in the early 1900s bringing to life the hustle and bustle of an Old World marketplace on the brink of industrialization. Seen through the life of a Jewish rug maker\, Market Day is an ageless tale of how economic and social forces can affect a single life. Sturm is founder of the country's premier cartooning school\, and author of several award-winning books.
The Norwich Bookstore will provide books for signing at the event.
