We strive to host inclusive, accessible events that enable all individuals, including individuals with disabilities, to engage fully. If you have questions about accessibility or require an accommodation such as captioning or ASL interpretation to participate in this event, please contact Accessibility Manager Helyn Marshall at accessibility@wexarts.org or via telephone at (614) 688-3890. Requests made by two weeks in advance will generally allow us to provide seamless access, but the Wexner Center for the Arts will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.

Join the Wexner Center for the Arts, University Libraries, and the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum for the third-annual Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.

Despite its wide reach, Wikipedia suffers from a severe gender gap: the online encyclopedia has fewer and less extensive articles on women and queer artists. This inclusive event is dedicated to improving coverage of gender, feminism, and the arts on Wikipedia. On March 24, we invite you to edit Wikipedia throughout the day and contribute to closing the information gap online. No experience necessary! 

Event organizers will be available to answer questions and assist editors in an open Zoom meeting from noon to 4 PM EST. Before the event, participants are encouraged to first create a Wikipedia account, log into the dashboard, and register for our open Zoom meeting.
