Grosse Pointe Artists Association – History of Mapping Michigan

March 8 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$35 – $40

A map of Michigan is easily at hand for most people, whether it is on the phone in their pocket or demonstrated by simply holding up their hand! It wasn’t always that simple. The shape of the state took centuries to be fully realized on a map. Join Sierra Laddusaw, Curator of Maps & Graphics, and Mary Pedley, Assistant Curator of Maps, from the William L. Clements Library to learn more about the mapping of “the Mitten.”
