Sio designs the poster, to Silver the Pulcinella Award for Lifetime Achievement
The festival’s poster, designed by popular cartoonist Sio (Simone Albrigi), sets the tone for this winter celebration of animation, transmediality, and meta arts, bringing together animation enthusiasts and professionals for an exciting lineup of events. Organized by Rai and Rai Com with Roberto Genovesi as artistic director, the event will host elementary and middle school students for a variety of activities.
A highlight of the festival is the Pulcinella Award for Lifetime Achievement, which will be presented to the legendary cartoonist Silver (Guido Silvestri), creator of Lupo Alberto. Throughout the three-day event, attendees can enjoy appearances by familiar faces from children’s television, as well as a retrospective of animated films with public screenings each afternoon. The festival will close with a special live show designed for young audiences. Cartoons On The Bay is produced in collaboration with the Regione Abruzzo, promising a memorable experience for children, families, and animation fans alike.
