Through cartoons, illustrations, mixed media, musical compositions and computer animation, the work of these artists helps a story jump off the page. The display features examples from comic books and children’s books to the big screen and shows how Nebraskan artists tell different types of stories through their work.

Featured artists include: UNO's Caitlin Cass along with Bruce Arant, Michael Burton, Trent Claus, Drew Conley, Bob Hall, Timothy James Hantula, Cale Oglesby, Henry Payer and Chip Thompson.
