About the event

Fantastic Worlds
In 1981, Karen Wynn Fonstad authored “The Atlas of Middle-earth,” the official geographic guide to the world of author J.R.R. Tolkien.

This summer, for the first time, Wynn Fonstad's original hand-drawn maps will be exhibited to the public. Curated by her son, UW–Madison alum and geographer Mark Fonstad, the Fantastic Worlds exhibition will illustrate how this groundbreaking cartographer shaped our collective understanding of fantasy geography
