Hi wiki-friends and wiki-newbies alike,
Our next Wikipedia NYC Meetup is Saturday May 21, 2011 at Symposium Greek Restaurant @ 544 W 113th St (in the back room), on the Upper West Side in the Columbia University area., starting at 6 PM.
This month we will be joined by a number of awesome out-of-towner wiki folk attending the GLAMcamp NYC conference that weekend (see more below!)
See details here for the May 21 meetup:

****And, that's not all!****
GLAMcamp, devoted of course to *Galleries, *Libraries, *Archives & *Museums and their growing place in the wiki-verse, is starting off with a bang the day before the meetup with a May 20 Friday morning free workshop at the New York Public Library Science, Industry and Business Library, starting at 9 AM.
This is open to all professionals and students in the cultural sector (galleries, libraries, etc), and also to everyone from academia.
This two hour workshop is designed for those interested in learning more about how their community can collaborate with the Wikimedia projects - notably Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons.
Sign up here, and tell your colleagues:

And remember the #GLAMWIKI hashtag too :)
