Through cataloguing these cartoons, we ensure that this important period in recent history is captured in the cartoon catalogue of the British Cartoon Archive for use in learning, teaching and research.<\/p>\n<p>The project will run from\u00a03rd\u00a0October through to 5th\u00a0December 2023 (10 weeks)\u00a0using a hybrid model of in-person group sessions and remote virtual cataloguing. This opportunity is open to all, so if you do not live locally to Canterbury, you are welcome to join as a fully remote participant. Similarly, if you would prefer to participate in person only, that\u2019s ok too.<\/p>\n<p>To see what&#8217;s involved click here: <a href=\"https:\/\/eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fblogs.kent.ac.uk%2Fspecialcollections%2F2023%2F09%2F01%2Fcartooning-covid-19-call-for-volunteer-participants%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CS.Gilbert%40kent.ac.uk%7Cf9b2e00b95004932decb08dbb04720a5%7C51a9fa563f32449aa7213e3f49aa5e9a%7C0%7C0%7C638297591750989249%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=FB9rZ7%2B7oakDnpL0vGojTfeWEd0OiI%2BAQC8QeSR4sF0%3D&amp;reserved=0\">https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/specialcollections\/2023\/09\/01\/cartooning-covid-19-call-for-volunteer-participants\/<\/a>\u00a0for more information. <strong>To participate in this project please email\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:cartoons@kent.ac.uk\">cartoons@kent.ac.uk.<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Throughout October-December 2023 the British Cartoon Archive be running a volunteer project as part of the British Cartoon Archive&#8217;s 50th\u00a0anniversary celebrations. &#8216;Cartooning Covid-19\u2019 will be &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/2023\/09\/12\/british-cartoon-archiving-volunteering-opportunity\/\">Read&nbsp;more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":81296,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1983"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/81296"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1983"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1983\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1985,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1983\/revisions\/1985"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1983"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1983"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/artshumsemployability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1983"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
