Thank you for your warm welcome Florence and Michaela, I'm looking forward to talking more with you. :)

So we are just in the beginning as the researchers have not started yet. At the moment we are collecting a list of female artists they and our workshop participants could work with. The list is open for anyone to edit so you can add your favorite artists there too. :)

Dear Johanna, 

Great to hear from you and about your interest in the Art+Feminism community! I am the Pérez Art Museum Miami WIR and am focusing on A+F's critical approach and framework for this project. In addition to Wiki work, I collaborate with museum staff in several Art+Feminism Edit-a-thons and Wiki-related public programs for staff, museum audience, teens and educators from South Florida,  local cultural organizations, libraries, and the academia

Also, I published a catalog in Portuguese about the Art+Feminism/Wikipedia work I developed with my curatorial collective in Brazil (NaPupila) - the publication is now being translated into English and Spanish, and the bilingual volume will be launched soon. 

I look forward to speaking with you soon! 
Michaela

Hi Johanna

I just sent you an invite for next Monday for a chat. Would be nice to get in touch :)

I am not strickly speaking working with A+F (I might suggest that you should say what is A+F in case some folks here do not know).
HOWEVER... I work in the gender space in my loose hours... and I currently have a drive operating about Women in Art. You might want to have a look and I can tell you more about it next week. https://isa.toolforge.org/campaigns/300

Regarding Wikimania... I organized or participated to WREN presence at Wikimania the past three years.
Report from last year : https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Newsletter/August_2023/Contents/WREN_at_Wikimania_report
Unfortunately, I do not have any scholarship or funding at this point in time, so I am not planning to organize anything. Might possibly join online if someone sets something up though.

Cheers

Flo

Heipä hei

and nice to e-meet you all! I joined this list in January and got the first message yesterday so I wanted to tell you a bit about our new project.

We got funding for 2 years from Koneen Säätiö (Kone Foundation, initially started by the Finnish elevator company). I'm the WIR for three art researchers who are starting to write about their subject areas in the coming months. 25 % of the time I'm working for the project and the rest in my own company. We are also arranging a series of editathons and writing a book about female content on the Internet. In the summer we are coming to Wikimania. Are there A+F / WIR meetups planned for Wikimania?

This is our blog which you'll be able to read with your translator:
https://marginaalit.blogspot.com/ .

I guess we are mainly concentrating on Finnish Wikipedia but maybe we also do something in French as one of the researchers lives in Paris. 

So in case there are some active French Wikipedians in the list, it would be great to have a private chat sometimes. I'm also interested to hear comments from other  WIRs working with A+F.

Cheers
