In this two day workshop we explore the history of maps, mapping elements, design, drawing and lettering while you create your own unique map.
The workshop finishes with you binding your maps using the traditional Turkish Map Fold to produce a pop-up map.

Having the extra day allows us to include pop-ups and hidden pockets in your map and we really explore details while creating your map.

Bring an idea with you to work with. In previous workshops we’ve covered holidays, favourite walks, family farms, family trees, well the list is endless.

I have been running this class in various UK locations for ten years and each map is a discovery both for the student and myself. You’ll be surprised just how addictive mapping can be and how much you’ll find yourself concentrating on the processes, while still having a fun, I promise you, the two can happen concurrently!
I’ll also be bringing my own maps and a small selection of my own vast collection of maps to the workshop.

The Granary is a wonderful arts centre in Stapleford just a short distance from Cambridge. They have events, a gallery and a very nice café that I regularly tested to make sure their standards remain high!
