Mapmaking as a hands-on art practice

Jill K. Berry’s 52 map-related activities are arranged as weekly exercises, beginning with map legends and lines before moving through different map types and styles. The sequence then turns toward making personalized maps, including imagined places. Each activity can stand alone, or the exercises can be used as a longer creative program. The book connects cartographic concepts with art-making, treating maps not only as ways to represent places but also as prompts for visual exploration and invention.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Map enthusiasts interested in creative projects
  • Artists and designers exploring cartography
  • DIY-minded readers seeking individual activities or a yearlong project sequence
