Notes for a People’s Atlas of Chicago

An exhibition of maps from the Notes for a People’s Atlas of Chicago project, which solicits contributions from participants who sketch out their personal map of Chicago on a blank outline map, will take place tomorrow between 5:00 and 8:00 PM at the Wicker Park Field House in Chicago, Chicagoist reports. (After that, the release party for a related book, Experimental Geography: Radical Approaches to Landscape, Cartography, and Urbanism.)

If you can’t make it to the event, the maps are also available on this Flickr set. There are similar projects for other places, including central New York state and Zagreb.
