Celebrating International Women’s Day by adding more women artists to the Hebrew Wikipedia.

As part of the International Art + Feminism Initiative and in collaboration with Wikimedia Israel, Artport is pleased to be participating for the third time, for a day of content writing on female artists.

Wikipedia has become a major source of knowledge, though when looking for information about personalities in Hebrew, less than 20% are about women. The Art + Feminism initiative aims to change just that, and write history together as we want to read it.

In the program: Getting to know Wikipedia and learning basic rules, writing new values, translating existing values ​​into Hebrew, and also tea, cookies and oranges.

The workshop will be successful and we will add a lot of knowledge to Wikipedia, some preparation needs to be done in advance.

Very important before the workshop –
1. Open a Wikipedia user
2. Bring a laptop (if we haven’t – we’ve updated it beforehand and we might be able to help)
3. Think about what value an artist you want to write or translate in search of materials in advance
