MMA Visually Communicating your Municipal Budget Webinar
March 17th
When: Tuesday, March 17, 2026 | 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
What are you doing to make your annual budget digestible, accessible, and engaging for your constituents?
Most municipalities have the tools to communicate, but lack the strategy to make their budget story resonate. Join national award-winning journalist and founder of kartoonEDU Dave Kartunen to learn a visual storytelling framework that turns complex budgets into engaging community narratives.
Kartunen will walk you through a visual storytelling campaign that any municipality can leverage to tell their budget story - to any audience, through any medium, and on any platform.
Panelists:
- Dave Kartunen, Founder, kartoonEDU
- Dr. Doug Lyons, Superintendent, Wakefield
- Jayne Wellman, Assistant Town Manager, Reading
