ART + COMMUNITY

[edit]

ART + COMMUNITY is an edit-a-thon project developed in the Art, Culture, and Community Development Course (SS-512) in the Social Science and Cultural Studies Department at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. During this edit-a-thon we will be submitting pages for artists, activists, and organizers with a sustained involvement in cultural production, community building, and intersectional dialogs.

Who are we focusing on?

[edit]

Artists, activists, and organizers with a sustained involvement in cultural production, community building, and intersectional dialogs were chosen through a series of discussions with students and Professors Uzma Z. Rizvi and Jaret Vadera. This is the first in a series of edit-a-thons with the aim of adding diverse practitioners and communities to the wikipedia archive. Although this selection is far from comprehensive, it is one step towards a more diverse archive.
