Join us this Saturday Sept 7 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art,
12:30-4:30pm, for our *Met Fashion Edit-a-thon* to expand existing
Wikipedia articles on fashion and clothing types that can be illustrated by
The Met collection, and also past Costume Institute exhibitions!!
It's the last weekend for 'Camp: Notes on Fashion', and we will have an
intro talk to the exhibit by a guest from the Costume Institute, and
participants will then be able to visit it on their own. Galleries will be
open this evening until 9 pm.
With refreshments, and there will be a wiki-cake!
Open to everyone at all levels of experience, wiki instructional workshop
and one-on-one support will be provided.

Please bring your own laptop to this event if you can, it's much better for
Wikipedia editing than mobile.
*** Located in the Uris Center for Education, 81st Street entrance: 12:30pm
- 4:30 pm. (note this is just south of the main entrance). Galleries will
be open this evening as well for those who would like see the galleries
informally afterward.***
Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends, colleagues and students,
and anyone into fashion history!
And feel free to reply here if you have any questions about this event :)
Thanks,
Richard
