YOU HAVE BEEN
located
I’m amazed by the trivial information I learn from the paper placemats at my favorite Chinese restaurant. I know the ins and outs of the Chinese Calendar. I know I was born in the Year of the Rat. And now that they have incorporated a local map for visitors to the area, I now know where all the trolley stops are located and where I can park for free. Never discount the importance of a map…or a placemat. This next Call is all about the map, not the placemat…
Check out this Call for Entries from Riverside Arts Center (Ypsilanti, MI) for Map It, a juried exhibition for map lovers. This isn’t a theme I run across very often despite how many of you incorporate maps into your works. Investigate this one…
