Join us on the 10th, 11th and 12th of September as Livingmaps goes live for a festival-style weekend of creative counter-mapping. Inspired by the idea of festival as a place away from the trials and tribulations of everyday life, a transformative space where people go to encounter new experiences and to dream and re-imagine different worlds.

Livingmaps Live will be a weekend of creative and critical cartography. Come and explore activities for children and adults, including live walks, online talks and activities and workshops to do in your own space and time over the weekend.
