Israeli Cartoon Museum, Cartoon and comic art museum in Holon, Israel.
The Israeli Cartoon Museum in Holon is a dedicated space for drawing arts, displaying a large collection of political cartoons, comics, and humorous illustrations by Israeli and international artists. The rooms present works of different styles and periods on the walls and in display cases.
The museum opened in 2007 when the city of Holon and the Israeli Cartoonist Association joined efforts to honor this art form. The project grew from a desire to preserve cartoons and comics as an important part of the local artistic tradition.
The museum displays how cartoons and comics reflect Israeli subjects, with artists commenting on current events through humor and drawings. Visitors can see how this art form is part of the local visual culture and how people express their thoughts and feelings through images.
The rooms are easily accessible from outside and offer visitors clear orientation through signage in several languages. It helps to check opening times beforehand, especially if you are planning a longer visit.
The museum has focused from the start on presenting comics and cartoons as serious art forms, not just entertainment. This perspective is visible throughout the exhibition spaces and makes the visit particularly interesting for people who otherwise consider comics as secondary.
