Beginners welcome! We'll provide training for new editors. Orientations are offered every hour on the hour.

Focus: Meetup with online magazine East of Borneo for an edit-a-thon to build a more diverse and accurate history of art in Southern California. This next meetup in their Unforgetting L.A. series will begin a one-year partnership with L.A. as Subject—a local alliance of libraries, museums, and other cultural organizations dedicated to improving access to the archival material of Los Angeles history—and will be hosted at their 9th Annual Los Angeles Archives Bazaar. We're primarily interested in art and culture, but you are welcome to work on anything you like.

As Always, you do not need to be an experienced Wikipedia editor in order to attend. But if you are, please consider volunteering your expertise to this or any future Unforgetting L.A. meetup by contacting StaceyEOB( talk)

Background

Since July 2013, Unforgetting LA is a series of Wikipedia edit-a-thons to build a better online history of art in Southern California. We meet throughout the year at local galleries, museums, and nonprofit art spaces. Previous hosts include the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles and the MAK Center for Art and Architecture. Unforgetting L.A. is organized by East of Borneo, an online magazine of contemporary art and its history as considered from Los Angeles.
