A graduation star map
A graduation star map shows the sky above a night that marks the end of school and the start of what comes next. It carries a title and a message from you.
It is a gift that moves with a graduate to a first apartment, a dorm or a new city, and it stays on the wall longer than a card.

Which date, time and place to choose
Use the campus town and the evening of graduation. If the ceremony was during the day, the map still shows the stars that were above the campus at that minute.
Other good nights: the night they were born, which makes the print a story from the beginning to today, or the night they got their acceptance letter. For a graduate who moves far away, the sky above home is a good choice.
Order before graduation using the date of the ceremony. You can choose a future date up to 2100.

Message ideas
- The sky above campus the night you graduated. We are so proud of you.
- Four years, a lot of coffee, and one very good night.
- From the night you were born to the night you graduated, we have watched you shine.
- Wherever you go next, the sky above home stays the same.
- Aim high. You have already proved you can.
- The night it was all worth it.
A print for a first home
A 12 × 16 in print fits a dorm, a small apartment or a desk wall. A print only is light and easy to move, and it fits a standard 12 × 16 in frame later.
A frame in black, white or natural is ready to hang if the graduate already has a place to live.
Theme and style
Midnight and Eclipse suit a dark accent wall or a room with posters. Starlight suits a light, minimal room. The inverse map styles swap the paper and ink colors for a bolder look.
Turn on the constellation lines and the grid for a science or engineering graduate. Turn them off for a quieter print.
Check the preview before you pay. It uses the same drawing as the print, so the name, the year and the place you see are what we print.
Order before the ceremony
We print each map after you order it and then ship it. Order a few weeks before the party, or give it after the ceremony with the exact time.
