Wiki Culture Crawl

Wikipedians at the San Diego Museum of Natural History at 2016's Culture Crawl.

Each WikiConference North America hosts a Culture Crawl - a day-long event where we collaborate with local museums, libraries, and cultural institutions to host free backstage tours, edit-a-thons, and more. These crawls are a fantastic opportunity for conference attendees to experience the local culture, as well as collaborate with local institutions to improve Wikipedia.

This year's Culture Crawl will be on Day 1 of the pre-conference, August 9. We have established relationships and are planning free access and events with the Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec (BAnQ) and McGill University. The day includes tours of both institutions, photo walks, workshops, and edit-a-thons where Wikimedians utilize the institutions' resources to improve Wikipedia's coverage local topics.
