Q: Where can I find accommodations?

A: The Hotel Coolidge in White River Junction, Vermont, is right across the street from The Center for Cartoon Studies and offers reduced rates for summer workshop students. Call to inquire. There is also a Holiday Inn, Hampton Inn, White River Inn and Suites, and Comfort Inn under a 1 mile driving distance of the school.

All four hotels are located all on the Advance Transit Bus Orange Route. The bus runs daily from 8am to 8pm, and on Saturdays 10am-5:30pm. Note: no bus service on Sundays. Advance Transit bus service is free on all routes at all times. To see the schedule, click here.

Q: How can I travel to town?

A: For those driving, White River Junction sits at the intersection of I-89 and I-91. The town also has an Amtrak stop with a daily train arriving on the “Vermonter” line. Several bus lines exist, including a Greyhound stop, and the Dartmouth Coach, which has stops in Boston and NYC, and goes up to Hanover, NH. For air travel, some opt to fly into Boston Logan and take the Dartmouth Coach to the Upper Valley, or to fly into Manchester Airport in New Hampshire. There is also the Lebanon Municipal Airport, which offers flights through Cape Air. We do not recommend flying into the Burlington Airport, unless you are able to rent a car, as public transportation from Burlington to White River Junction is limited.
