Dear GLAM mailing list members, We hope this email finds you well! We are the lead co-organizers of the Art+Feminism, a campaign to improve coverage of women and the arts on Wikipedia, and encourage female editorship. We are writing to share some details about the 3rd annual Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.
As a bit of background on us: last year, over 1500 participants at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and more than 75 node events around the world participated in the second annual Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, resulting in the creation of nearly 400 new pages and significant improvements to 500 articles on Wikipedia. *We are hoping to double these results in 2016, and would love to have the GLAM Consortium involved.* The central New York event of the 2016 Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon will take place at the Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Education and Research Building at MoMA, 4 West 54 Street, on Saturday, March 5, 2016. Node events will take place over the weekend of March 4th-6th; there is funding available for childcare and refreshments. Please contact us at [email protected] for more details. Looking forward to hearing from you, Siân Evans + Jacqueline Mabey + Michael Mandiberg -- Website <http://art.plusfeminism.org/> | Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism> | Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/artandfeminism> | Mailing List <http://tumblr.us9.list-manage1.com/subscribe?u=ee76401e2efcdd499ae588b57&id=c589d77a01> | #artandfeminism ᐧ
