J.J. Sedelmaier and SVA professor Howard Beckerman, in conjunction with the Westchester Arts Council, The Picture House at Pelham, NY ComicCon & The Jacob Burns Film Center, co-curated the exhibition “It All Started Here”.

​

This show used the New York area as a basis for presenting animation’s beginning as well as the important roll the region plays in its growth and development. The majority of the exhibit consisted of material and artifacts out of the JJSP studio collection. The show occupied the main floor and mezzanine of the Arts Exchange in White Plains, across from the JJSP Studio. Sincere thanks go out to all that lent their valuable pieces to the show, with a special thanks to Julia Dixon who helped facilitate the actual construction of the show and its displays!
