1928’s Mickey Mouse short Plane Crazy is generally regarded as the first cartoon, but did you know that the animated French film Fantasmagorie predates that by 20 years? Oh the facts you’ll learn as you venture down to Columbus for Journey Into Imagimation: 100 Years of Animated Art From Around the World. Learn about early animation techniques such as rotoscoping and the use of still frames to create “living” characters. On loan from the Animation Hall of Fame, this rare exhibition celebrates animation and creativity while educating students of all ages about an underrated art form. The theater is closed November 23-27 for Thanksgiving.
