Bennett & McDermott invited visitors to Offbeat Live Art Festival 2024 to participate in Map of the Day. Participants worked together with the artists to co-create a map of Gloucester Green for each day of the festival. Together we observed and recorded details of the area.  Everything was relevant, large, small or seemingly insignificant.  By the end of each day, with the energy of this collective effort, we produced a map, a snapshot of Gloucester Green that day.
