Thursday April 6th: Archive Open House Party 100 years ago on April 6th, 1906, J. Stuart Blackton created the first animated cartoon, giving life to a new medium. Leonard Maltin writes, "The first examples of animation fascinated and delighted audiences and that appeal has never waned in the past hundred years. Animators continue to explore and develop new technology, but the goal of entertaining an audience hasn't changed very much since the days of J. Stuart Blackton."

Join us on April 6th, 2006 from 6pm to 9pm, when the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive will be hosting an Open House Birthday Party for Animation's 100th, complete with cake and refreshments. Make plans now to attend and help us celebrate the art form we all love. Please email your RSVP to animations100@animationarchive.org.
