The GeoHipster1 calendar 2026 is announced and available to order. Randal Hale:
Geohipster is one of those “side things” that’s been happening for over 10 years now. Back in the dearly days of Twitter … or I should call it the “Golden Age of social media”, Atanas Entchev had an idea to document the industry. So a handful of us post articles highlighting professionals in the industry AND – we have this calendar. The best part of the calendar is it’s maps made by people. Some are professional cartographers. Some aren’t. All are excellent and tell a story of some sort.
The calendar can be ordered from lulu.com2. It ships internationally and the proceeds help cover the costs of GeoHipster3:
The money is used for everything from operating costs to anything else I can come up with. It pretty much breaks even each year.
The call for calendar submissions is usually open in fall. Watch GeoHipster if you would like to contribute one of your maps in the future.
Footnotes
Transparency note: I am a member of the advisory board of GeoHipster, have interviewed Vasile Coțovanu, Achim Tack and Patrick Stotz, Alasdair Rae and Topi Tjukanov on behalf of GeoHipster, and have been interviewed three times as a contributor to the calendar. To my regret, I must admit, however, that I have not been active for GeoHipster for quite some time.↩︎
