The 21st Cartoons and Cocktails, October 23, 2008, auctioned off a record number of editorial cartoons to benefit three great causes.

Sponsors, cartoonists, bidders and guests contributed to a lively night. The end of the evening saw the sale of C&C's traditional "art in action" panels drawn by the cartoonists who attended. The grand finale was a print of the July 21, 2008 New Yorker magazine cover signed by illustrator Barry Blitt and framed in burled walnut by Foxhall Gallery.
