Wikipedia Art + Feminism wants you! Become a Wikipedia editor, and get involved in this international effort to improve public knowledge, specifically, coverage of women and the arts on Wikipedia and Wikidata. Everyone is welcome—no matter your gender identity, and regardless of your experience with editing. Editors contribute in different ways: writing entries, adding footnotes, translating text, uploading images, and looking up information. Others can cheer us on and get the buzz going on social media. Join us in Ithaca as we address gender inequities in Wikipedia and Wikidata, and focus on solidarity—improving, creating, and enhancing entries that paint a fuller picture of how we all participate in the arts.

We will be holding an Art + Feminism edit-a-thon on April 19, 2024 at the TCPL (3-6pm in the Makerspace) and Olin Library (10am-5pm in room 703).

This year’s focus is art, artists, musicians, writers, and performers (or broadly, people) affected by or displaced by violence.

We will also have activities including zine-making and button-making, as well as snacks and a raffle!
