Exhibitions

Our exhibitions

We aim to engage the public and share new avenues of research and understandings of cartography. 

We welcome ideas for new exhibitions. We know that knowledge and insight come from many places. We enjoy partnering with students, staff or faculty of Stanford, as well as the public at large to bring together a diversity of interests, perspectives, and insights into our collection.

We curate both physical exhibitions at the Center and virtual ones online.
