Re: [Wikimedia-US-MN] User group announcement and upcoming events

Hello Minnesota Wikimedians, At the meetup last Saturday we submitted an application to be recognized as a user group, Wikimedia Minnesota User Group (WMUG). Please add your name to the user group page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Minnesota_User_Group> on Meta if you are interested. I'd also like to invite you to join us for some of our upcoming events: February 11: An edit-a-thon focusing on artists from marginalized communities will be held at the Loft Literary Center on Thursday, February 11 from 6-8pm. Sign up here <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Minnesota/Loft_Literary_Center> . March 5: The annual Art+Feminism edit-a-thon will be held at Minneapolis Central Library on Saturday, March 5 from 11 to 5. Sign up here <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Minneapolis/ArtAndFeminism/Minneapolis_Central_Library>. To prepare we'll be doing a "train the trainers" session at the library on February 22 at 4pm. Contact me if you are interested in being involved. There will also be an edit-a-thon on June 18 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Loves_Pride_2016/Minnesota> for Wiki Loves Pride at the Minneapolis Central Library. Another event on the horizon is a scan-a-thon of National Register files with the Minnesota Historical Society.
