Dear New York City Wikimedians and Free Culture Supporters,

It is with great enthusiasm that I invite you to join us at the next Wikimedia NYC Skillshare/Meetup on December 4^th, 2014 from 6:30-8pm at Babycastles, a co-working space and gallery in a great location, at 137 W. 14^th St. in Manhattan, just off Union Square. (We have the space 6-8pm if you want to come early).

Afterwards, we will walk to a social wiki-dinner together somewhere TBA nearby.

The agenda for the Meetup includes:

• Local Wikipedia free culture projects and announcements
• Past, present, and future institutional partnerships with Wikipedia
• Recent image donations to Wikipedia
• WikiConference USA reporting and lessons learned
• Chapter planning and chapter roles
• WMNYC financial reporting
• Edit-a-thons past, present, future + metrics
• Spring 2015 Education Program classes
• Art+Feminism Campaign (March, 2014 )

We will plan to reserve at least 30 minutes during the meetup for a Skillshare, open to anyone who wants to present on a project or idea, or start a roundtable discussion to share their ideas with the rest of the group. For example- I'd love to see someone present on WikiData and WikiData projects if anyone has knowledge on that subject!

Please RSVP on the Wikipedia page here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/December_2014 and let me know if you have any more questions or agenda items to add, leading up to the meeting. I’ve attached a few pictures of the space for your reference. It has fast wi-fi, at least 50 chairs for all of us, and should be quite comfortable.

I look forward to seeing all of you very soon.

Best wishes,

Dorothy Howard
