About the event

This Way Up - When Maps Go Wrong (and Why It Matters!) | The Map Men
The Map Men have selected what they believe to be some of the very best wrong maps. Some of them are decades old, some are centuries old and some are so recent they’re being published today (or yesterday, if you’re reading this tomorrow).

So, ditch the compass (or disable location services) and set out on a journey into a world of cartographic chaos and mappy mishaps. Because the worst maps are the best maps.
