Artexte × Art + Féminisme Journée Edit-a-thon 2026
Edit Intersectional Care Practices in Contemporary Art
May 16th 2026 — 12 pm to 6 pm @ Artexte
Hybrid event – In person and on Zoom
As part of its ongoing support for Art + Feminism, Artexte invites you to a Wikipedia and Wikidata contributive event, dedicated to editing intersectional care practices in contemporary art.
This edit-a-thon aims to highlight artists, authors, and cultural workers whose practices are rooted in radical care practices – to be understood as a political, collective and situated practice. Particular attention will be given to underrepresented groups on Wikipedia, including women, Indigenous and people of color (BIPOC), LGBTQIA2S+, people with disabilities, migrants or part of the diaspora, whose voices deserve to take up space in the free encyclopedia.
No experience is needed. Everyone is welcome.

12h00 — 13h00 Introduction workshop (for beginners)
13h00 — 17h40 Voluntary contribution – Wikimedia and Wikidata
17h40 — 18h00 Closing discussion
