ANZMapS Webinar: Pictorial Mapmakers, Thurs 19 May, 12-1pm AEST via Zoom.

The Australian and New Zealand Map Society (ANZMapS) invites you to attend our first (free!) webinar for 2022: “Pictorial Mapmakers”

Pictorial maps convey information using illustrations, images and text to engage the viewer. They gained popularity in first half of the 20th century and are undergoing a renaissance as contemporary mapmakers find creative ways to expand traditional notions of cartography.

Listen to Melinda Clarke, Adam Mattinson and Anton Thomas speak about their craft in producing contemporary pictorial maps. Melinda has published maps of Melbourne and recently released a map of the Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria. Adam is currently working on a Tolkien style map of the Yarra Ranges, located in Melbourne’s outer north. Anton has drawn a map of North America and his Wild World nature map is nearing completion.
