Hello friends!
No, Maptime HQ is not "back", we are still on indefinite hiatus.
But! There are still many decentralized #maptime chapters that are active around the world, so we wanted to create a centralized MaptimeHQ account to *occasionally* repost that mappy goodness.
We miss you all! ❤️🌈
Event: #Maptime Fall 2025 Series
WHEN: Mondays, starting September 15th, from 12-4PM WHERE: Prentis Building Fishbowl, Wayne State University, 5201 Cass Ave. WHAT: Come co-work on your mapping project, get support learning GIS, or just chat about maps! RSVP: Let us know you're coming!
