Annita Lucchesi, a Ph.D. student in the University of Arizona School of Geography, Development & Environment will conduct a free workshop on Creating Maps Without GIS. This workshop will explore varying methods of creating maps outside GIS, including mapping in Adobe Illustrator and art-based mapping. This workshop is aimed at empowering participants of all skill levels and access points to be mapmakers and to use maps as compelling forms of data visualization with the full freedom available through mapping outside GIS. Registration is required.
The workshop is part of a series of free workshops in "Feminist Visualization 2021: Mobilities, Sovereignty, Borders," which brings together students, researchers, and activists to create visualizations that help us see and understand the shifting geographies of sovereignty and border enforcement in new ways. The event was co-organized by Jill Williams, an associate research professor in the Southwest Institute for Research on Women.
