I would support WREN doing something to host a State of GLAM time block at Wikimania, I think that could be a good fit.

I will likely be traveling in this period and would focus in advance
on preparing something on my #1stWikimedianInResidenceHR (Croatia)...
Curious and enthusiastic to see how WREN can surface collectively.
