Sherburne Arts Festival to feature works of cartoonist Randy Glasbergen
SHERBURNE – The work of nationally renowned cartoonist Randy Glasbergen, a Sherburne resident who passed away in 2015, will be featured in a special exhibit during the 5th annual Sherburne Arts Festival on Saturday, June 11 in Gaines Park.
Glasbergen's comic panel “The Better Half” was syndicated by King Features Syndicate for 32 years, starting in 1982. At the end of syndication, “The Better Half” was appearing seven days a week in approximately 150 print and online newspapers around the world. With newspapers losing more and more readers to the Internet, Glasbergen retired “The Better Half” at the end of 2014 to devote more time and energy to his cartoon licensing operation, Glasbergen Cartoon Service.
Glasbergen was born in Norwich, NY and graduated from Sherburne-Earlville High School before attending Utica College of Syracuse University. He married Karen Harris in Sherburne in 1977. In addition to cartooning, Glasbergen wrote text for hundreds of greeting cards for Hallmark Cards, American Greetings, and others.
The exhibit of Glasbergen’s work will also include the works of other well-known cartoonists from his private collection.
Running from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the festival will showcase the work of artists and crafters from Central New York and the Southern Tier, featuring exquisite works of art in a variety of media: photography, watercolor, oil paintings, glass work, jewelry, fiber arts, hand-made frames, wood work, metal sculpture, gourds, hand-made soaps, and much more.
All artwork is under tents in case of rain, and there will be food and drink available for purchase throughout the day. Parking is available in several village lots and on the street.
