Hi Wiki Yorkers,
You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community in October for our
"WikiWednesday" evening salon and knowledge-sharing workshop at Babycastles
gallery by 14th Street / Union Square in Manhattan.
**This month, we will also host a Newcomer's Wiki Workshop for those who
want to get started on the project!**
We will also include a look at our annual plan and budget ideas, to see if
the chapter is able to fiscally sponsor more ongoing projects tied to our
core mission of expanding and diversifying free knowledge.
We welcome the participation of our friends from the Free Culture movement
and from educational and cultural institutions interested in developing
free knowledge projects. We will also follow up on plans for recent and
upcoming editathons, and other outreach activities.
After the main meeting, pizza/chicken/vegetables and refreshments and video
games in the gallery!
