You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community for our annual summer Great American Wiknic, this year being held virtually.

We look forward to seeing local Wikimedians, but would also like to invite folks from the greater New York metropolitan area (and beyond!) who might not typically be able to join us in person!

Featuring artist-Wikimedian Sara Clugage's "Picnics: An Outside History" for a cultural exploration of picnicking, knowledge and society during the national panel in the first part. We encourage you to call in for the second part from a local park or natural site and share it on the video stream, as well as sharing your favorite picnic grub or other special foods with us.

The Wiknic is also taking the place of "WikiWednesday" this month, so we will also include salon and knowledge-sharing workshop aspects.

Sunday August 16 Great American Wiknic NYC:

3:00 pm - online via YouTube (watch our national panel's livestream, and participate by text chat)
