Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 May 2023, 10am to 4pm

A drop in session for residents and visitors to think about the ways we navigate the town and re-draw the map from our own perspectives.

"The map is not the territory" - Alfred Korzybski

Maps often shape the ways we view our environment - but these are abstract at best and created for specific reasons. Maps are never neutral.

Using a process of counter-mapping we can shed light on how spaces are actually used, and how what places really mean to people.

Over two days you are invited to drop in, chat, have a tea or coffee, and draw out the routes and places that matter to you:

• What are the landmarks in your life?
• What are your regular routes?
• Where are the forgotten and forbidden places?
• Where are the borders drawn?
• Where even is Margate?
