Dear Siān and all: I am so pleased to see this enormous effort make such a lasting impact on the scholarship of women artists. I hope that everyone in ARLIS/NA will join me in giving Siān, Jacqueline, Michael, Laurel, Dorothy, Richard and Eyebeam a huge virtual round of applause! This is what happens when the crowd comes together to collectively share knowledge. It's also really heartwarming to see what was the ARLIS/NA Women Artist Roundtable repacked into a vibrant and active SIG. All the best, Sarah Falls Head, Fine Arts Library Ohio State University ARLIS/NA Executive Board, Education Liaison ________________________________ From: ARLIS/NA List [[log in to unmask]] on behalf of Sian Evans [[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, February 05, 2014 12:32 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [ARLIS-L] Women and Art SIG: Art+Feminism Wikipedia edit-a-thon thank you! Greetings all from your friendly Women and Art SIG coordinator, I just wanted to thank everyone who participated in last weekend's Art+Feminism Wikipedia edit-a-thon<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism>. We had approximately 150 attendees (librarians, academics, curators, artists, art lovers, feminists, etc.) at Eyebeam<https://eyebeam.org/events/art-feminism-wikipedia-edit-a-thon> in NYC. We also had satellite events in 31 locations in 6 different countries around the world. We're working to document all the good work we did here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ArtAndFeminism/Outcomes If you're interested in reading more and checking out some of the international press generated by the events, you can also take a look at our FAQ page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ArtAndFeminism/FAQ Again, thanks so much to everyone for all your hard work!
