Venue Description

Through its exhibitions, collection and events, the Cartoon Museum celebrates Britain's cartoon art from the 18th century to the present day. Britain's cartoon and comic heritage is one of the best in the world, and this small museum shows this artform in all its guises - caricature, the political, the social and of course the pocket and joke cartoons. Its main galleries are filled with artwork that will make you laugh from Hogarth to Gillray, to H. M. Bateman, Pont and Searle, to Steve Bell and Martin Rowson.

Accessibility

The ground floor of the Museum is wheelchair accessible. The ground floor galleries display cartoons and caricatures that tell the history of cartooning, and the temporary exhibition. The shop, library and wheelchair accessible toilet are also on the ground floor. There is one step into the shop, but a wheelchair ramp is available. We regret that there is no lift to the first floor. There are seventeen stairs with handrails on either side. A hearing loop is located at reception, and if you require magnifiers please ask at reception.
