Town cartoon festival begins

Shrewsbury’s annual international cartoon festival got under way today, offering people the chance to see how cartoonists work and have a go themselves.

Thousands of fans will visit the town over the next three days to enjoy the work of some of the world’s top cartoon artists.

Highlights include the Festival themed exhibition at Bear Steps Gallery featuring cartoon originals.

The seventh festival will also see displays of Greek and Australian cartoons at the town’s multi-million pound Theatre Severn.
