CITY WALK / Create Your Own Map
A Mini Zine Workshop
Have you ever noticed how much of the city you pass through without really seeing?
In our daily routines, we move through familiar streets, recognizing shapes, patterns, and structures almost unconsciously.
This workshop invites you to slow down and look again.
Through the act of walking, observing, and creating, we will break down the city into its fundamental forms—circles, triangles, and squares—and reconstruct them into something personal.
What emerges is not just a map of a place, but a reflection of how you see, feel, and interpret the world around you.
This is your “inner map.”
Come join us for a creative exploration—plus freshly brewed coffee to fuel your journey.
