Art + Feminism has announced that it will hold a third Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on March 5, following the enormous success of the event’s last two editions, in 2014 and 2015. Once again, the edit-a-thon will take place at the Museum of Modern Art’s Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Education and Research Building from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., though a press release notes that additional satellite edit-a-thons will take place during the month of March at more than 100 locations around the world, including Tate Britain, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Yale University, the Philadelphia Museum of Art Library, Ashesi University Berekuso in Accra, Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo in Mexico City, Archives Nationales in Paris, and the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C.

Project Update #ExperimentingWithCommunity
Thanks to the efforts of our amazing partner at the Museum of Folk Architecture and Rural Life in L'viv, I'm excited to announce that our #JHU team recently had the opportunity see our research efforts in action. Posted just this morning is our two-minute online survey designed to get to know our museum' online community: who they are; what their interests are; and how they like to communicate with our museum partner. It is our hope that, armed with the right information, we can eventually identify better ways of connecting our online community with the physical museum and their new online collection. We'll let you know how it goes! Plus - look! Cute sheep to serve as an unlikely visual hook!
