NCS / REUBEN AWARDS

NATIONAL CARTOONISTS SOCIETY CONFERENCE
AND 78TH ANNUAL REUBEN AWARDS
August 22-24, 2024

The premiere professional conference for cartoonists and the National Cartoonists Society’s annual Reuben Awards, honoring excellence across profession.

This year we will co-host some of our conference programming with the awesome team at the Comic Con Museum​, located in San Diego’s beautiful Balboa Park. The NCS board used feedback from the member poll to scout several western cities, but the unique opportunity to partner with the Museum, plus a fantastic hotel at reasonable rates, and the city’s overall amenities made San Diego the best option.

Register early at our EVENT SITE to secure discounted tickets and hotel rates and watch for announcements with more programming details, guest speakers, and this year’s award nominees.
​

On behalf of the NCS board, we look forward to seeing you in San Diego!
