The NCS Conference and Reuben Awards Playbill is the perfect way to give a shout out to your peers, promote your work, or highlight your business!  The 6×9 full-color collectible booklet – with a feature on every nominee and conference session – is given to every attendee at the Conference and Reuben Awards dinner and an interactive digital edition is distributed digitally to over 1500 industry contacts.

By purchasing an ad, you not only showcase your work but also support the NCS community and the mission of the NCS Foundation. As nonprofit organizations, both the NCS and the Foundation appreciate your contribution to help foster creativity and camaraderie among cartoonists worldwide. The NCS Foundation supports not only the annual NCS Conference and Reuben Awards, but also provides year-round art outreach, scholarships, and assistance to cartoonists in need. Playbill ad proceeds benefit the nonprofit NCS Foundation and you will receive a charitable contribution acknowledgement letter, as your ad may be TAX DEDUCTABLE!
