 s of earth-shaking forces\, charismatic species\, and changing urban habit
 at\, the Nature in the City map is as beautiful as it is informative. Deta
 iled environmental information is woven together with original artwork by 
 Jane Kim\, writing by Mary Ellen Hannibal\, and design by Leah Elamin.\n\n
 The map celebrates the abundance of nature and unique ecosystems found rig
 ht at our doorstep\, orienting the viewer to a sense of time and place. Mo
 re than a map and stories of trails\, natural areas and local species\, th
 is large-scale depiction of the San Francisco Peninsula is a rich artistic
  and scientific rendering of local\, regional\, continental and global sca
 les across space and time. It’s an invitation for children and adults to
  learn\, to walk\, to tend\, and to love conserving the essential beauty o
 f the region’s ecosystem. On the map's flip side\, four distinct panels 
 tell stories of Shaping the City\, Gardening the City\, the Resilient City
 \, and Connecting the City.\n\nThe map measures 24 x 36 inches and is easi
 ly portable as a folded 8 x 6 inch map. Its beautiful large-scale is perfe
 ct for wall display and education\, providing riveting facts and graphic a
 rtwork depicting the abundance of nature in San Francisco.\n\nThe map was 
 spearheaded by Nature in the City\, a local non-profit dedicated to enviro
 nmental stewardship and education\, in partnership with the SF Department 
 of the Environment\, the SF Planning Department\, the SF Public Library\, 
 the Presidio Trust\, and local museums including the California Academy of
  Sciences and the Exploratorium. In January 2018\, 50\,000 were printed an
 d are being made available to schools\, hikers\, naturalists\, government 
 agencies\, museums\, and more.\n\nFree and open to the public
