  • In Short
    This unconventional destination is dedicated to preserving and showcasing cartoon art (still and animated). Thanks to an endowment from "Peanuts" creator Charles Schulz, this is the country's only museum of its kind, featuring more than 6,000 original works in its permanent collection, as well as temporary exhibitions throughout the year. Each month, the museum also hosts visiting artists, who demonstrate and discuss their work with patrons.
