High Museum 2019 Event - Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon

Saturday March 30, 2019 12:00 AM EDT
Cost: Free with pre-registration

From the venue:

Wikipedia’s gender gap leaves us with an alarming lack of representation in the world’s most popular online research tool. Join us for the Art+Feminism Edit-a-Thon and be part of an international movement to improve coverage of women and the arts on Wikipedia.

  • Learn about women artists
  • Learn how Wikipedia works
  • Become a Wikipedia editor
  • Edit, update, and create Wikipedia articles related to gender, art, and intersectional feminism, with a focus on artists in the High’s collection

No Wikipedia experience necessary; We will provide training sessions for beginner Wikipedians. Even if you’re editing-averse, come by to show your support and enjoy the festivities. If you want to edit, bring your laptop, power cord, and ideas for articles. People of all gender identities are welcome.

Admission is free with pre-registration.
