Abstract
This practice-led paper considers the ongoing cartography and emerging pedagogies of Gathering Press, a roving screen-printing project moving within the Black Country, West Midlands, UK. The text considers the inter-relations between people, place and making, drawing upon feminist geographers and educators to explore how a resource that is unhinged from a single location can develop opportunities for community learning that are attentive to the specificities of place. From the local market and library to the canal-side, the layered and incremental moments of doing and making are embodied through a pedagogy of place and placemaking in which one scenario takes the process to somewhere else. This example mentioned initiates a discussion on the nature of the press as an object that becomes more fully itself afterwards.
