6th EURO-FRUITCARTOONALE

An organization of the Imperial Commanderie of the Noble Haspengouwse Fruyteniers and their Gastronomy.

Delicious food and distraction are of all times.
Even for the Romans sport and entertainment were already very important.
The emperors knew very well to pamper their people by providing them with 'Food (Bread) and Games'.
We would like to see this idea projected on different situations in history or the topicality.
More than two thousand years later, this item is still actual.
With our beautiful Haspengouw as scenery the theme now becomes: Fruit and Games.
Meanwhile,we ask ourselves, which positive influence our Fruits from Haspengouw can have on these playful events in the present, past and perhaps also in the future.
The jury is looking forward to receive your lunatic cartoon-interpretations before 19 February 2007. Theme is “FRUIT and GAMES”.
