Artists and activists who identify as women, non-binary, trans, queer, Black, Indigenous, or People of Color only make up a fraction of contributors and content subjects in Wikipedia. To rectify these biases, the U‑M Library, Stamps Gallery, Digital Studies Institute, the University of Michigan Museum of Art, and the Ann Arbor District Library will be hosting the sixth annual Ann Arbor Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon. 

Events will take place at the Ann Arbor District Library’s Downtown branch and are free and open to the public.
