We are delighted to collaborate with the National Gallery’s Library & Archive department for an Art + Feminism Edit-a-thon on April 30th from 10 a.m.
This collaboration is aimed at creating an increased presence online for womxn artists whose stories are currently underrepresented on the Wikimedia platforms. We are inviting interested people to come and join us for a morning to receive training in how to contribute to Wikimedia pages and then use the Library & Archives resources to research specific female artists and update their information so that they have an increased and accurate online presence.
Those participating should bring a fully charged laptop (if this is a challenge we can see what we can do to assist). Tea & coffee will be served at a break. This event is free of charge, but if those booking find that they cannot attend we would appreciate notice as spaces are limited.
Date: Wednesday 30th April
Time: 10am – 1pm
Location: The National Gallery of Ireland’s Library & Archives Reading Rooms, Room 35, 3rd floor, Milltown Wing.
How to Secure your Spot:
Please note: Admission is free but places are limited!
About Art+Feminism
The internet is not a neutral space—it reflects the structures, biases, and inequalities of our world. But what if it didn’t?
Art+Feminism is an International Wikimedia Campaign that dares us to imagine and initiate a more equal world, starting with the internet. What if we held the power to create a feminist internet that amplifies marginalised voices, dismantles existing power imbalances, and fosters safer, more collaborative digital spaces for all? What would that look like?
Wikimedia Community Ireland is taking part in the Art+Feminism Campaign 2025-2026. Throughout the next two years, we will be joining the international community in continuing to reimagine what’s possible and the ways we can empower ourselves and others for change.
