About the event

Fantastic Worlds Public Presentation and Discussion
Join UW–Madison alum and geographer Mark Fonstad as he talks about the life and legacy of his mother, fantasy mapmaker Karen Wynn Fonstad (author of “The Atlas of Middle-earth”). Then, venture upstairs to the Fantastic Worlds exhibition to explore Wynn Fonstad’s original, hand-drawn maps, examples of her finalized published works, explanations of her techniques, and stories of her experience turning written geographic information into visual representations.

The public presentation will also be livestreamed: https://uwmadison.zoom.us/j/95871306176?pwd=yEuXYRUleU3KkdHebSwoOVrlag6kEw.1
