Call for Int’l Cartoon Festival of Al-Quds Announced
The festival will be held with two focus topics of “normalization betrayal” and “misery of Nakba Day”.
The efforts to normalize relations between some Arab and Islamic countries with the Israeli regime and the closeness of Nakba day with this year’s Quds Day have been named as the reason for choosing these themes.
June 21 has been announced as the deadline for sending cartoons.
The top winner will receive an honorary diploma plus 1,500 Euros while the second and third-place artists will be awarded diplomas plus 1,000 and 700 Euros respectively.
According to announced regulations, each cartoonist can participate in each of the competition topics with a maximum of 3 works (6 works in total).
The size of the submitted cartoons must be A4 in jpg format and a resolution of 300 dpi while the technique of the work is optional.
