Dutton's Atlas Symposium: How Cartography Helped Grand Canyon Become Grand

Join us for an engaging, entirely free and open-to-the-public symposium event offering insightful, thought-provoking presentations on the various historical-geographical and sociocultural dimensions of Dutton's Atlas!

What began as a work of science has survived as an unparalleled work of literature and landscape aesthetics. The Tertiary History of the Grand Cañon District with Atlas (Dutton's Atlas) revolutionized how modern society came to conceptualize and valorize the Grand Canyon.

Attend in person at Hayden Library on ASU's Tempe campus or join us online! Additional details, and instructions for online viewing coming soon.
