 Celebrating Women's art from the Collection of the Met: June 2017



 Welcome!

Women in Red is hosting a virtual editathon from June 1 to 30, 2017, on Women's art from the Collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

The virtual edit-a-thon allows enthusiasts from around the globe to participate in the work. The main goals of the event are:
 * to encourage inexperienced editors and show them how they can contribute to Wikipedia by creating biographies of some of the world's most prominent women
 * to draw the attention of more experienced editors to the need for concerted action on a specific area
 * to support Wikipedia in combating the systemic bias against the coverage of women and women's works
 * to promote the new/improved articles and images through social media (Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter)

Focus and lists of red links
In collaboration with the Met Open Access Artworks Challenge, Women in Red is focusing on artwork created by women.
