Pre-registration is highly recommended, but not required, at akolesova@icaboston.org. RSVP in advance for free museum admission.

Celebrate International Women’s Day by helping the ICA close the gender gap in Wikipedia articles and editors! Drop in to increase the digital visibility of female and gender non-binary identifying artists included in the ICA collection and exhibitions.

For the ICA’s 2019 Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon, we’re honoring the multilingualism of Wikipedia and offering our visitors the opportunity to edit not only in English, but also in other languages they may know. Help to eliminate barriers by creating, improving, or translating Wikipedia pages with us!

Wi-Fi and reference materials will be provided. Please note that the number of available computers is limited: we encourage participants who are able to bring their own laptops. People of all gender identities and expressions are welcome and encouraged to attend.
