Celebrate Place
Historically, maps were drawn by explorers and colonizers, reflecting their political agendas, cultures, and language rather than those of the local people. Through this project, local artists create maps that reflect and celebrate their cultures and experiences, sharing their own stories of place and community.

Tell a Story
Maps are not only navigational tools but also works of art influenced by geological, cultural, and political forces. Our maps summon the intimacy we associate with traditional cartography, celebrating both precision and creativity, the truthful, and the abstract. By displaying a hand-drawn map, customers can celebrate the places where they have explored, loved, and lived.
