Charles M. Schulz Museum

snoopy and astronaut academy

Raina Telgemeier and I will be touring Northern California and our first stop is at the Charles M. Schulz Museum, in Santa Rosa, where we’ll both be Cartoonists-in-Residence! If you can make it up to the North Bay, this should be so much fun.

As a life long Peanuts fan, I can’t tell you how excited I am about this! Raina and I will definitely be eating at the Warm Puppy Cafe and hopefully do some ice skating at Snoopy’s Home Ice!
