Hi everyone,

Wednesday, March 25^th from 5:30-8:30pm EST the Philadelphia Museum of Art will host an edit-a-thon to add and improve articles on African American artists in conjunction with our exhibition Represent: 200 Years of African American Art.  Check here for other events on the day.

Information on the edit-a-thon can be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Philadelphia/Represent_African_American_Artists. 

The event is open to the public and free after Museum admission, which is pay-what-you-wish on Wednesdays after 5pm.  New and experienced editors are welcome.  Newcomers are encouraged to attend the first hour of the event for a basic training session, led by Mary Mark Ockerbloom, Wikipedian in residence at the Chemical Heritage Foundation.

We encourage attendees to bring their own laptops and power cords.

Please help us spread the word!

Thanks,

Jessica
