Dear Wiki-Yorkers,

You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community for our monthly WikiWednesday Salon and annual members meeting at 7PM tonight, Wednesday, September 23rd.

*** WikiWednesday Salon ***
Date: September 23rd
Time: 7:00 - 8:00PM, with optional breakout rooms from 8:00 - 8:30P
Location: Online!

Agenda, details about how to connect (by computer or by phone), and optional RSVP at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/September_2020. Please note that while the annual meeting typically includes elections, the Wikimedia NYC board has decided to postpone elections due to the global pandemic, and will reevaluate the situation in early 2021.

On Saturday, September 26th, we hope you'll join The Metropolitan Museum of Art online for a virtual edit session to help build global information about fashion. The Met + Wikipedia team will provide source information from past fashion exhibitions, online publications, Open Access images, archival fashion plates, and a general glossary of terms, as well as training on creating and editing articles. A representative from The Costume Institute has also recorded an interesting session on our upcoming exhibition, About Time: Fashion and Duration. More information is available at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/MetFashion_2020


We look forward to editing with you soon!


Best,

Megs
