Thursday, October 18

Thursday is our Tech Day, which includes our hackathon, tech demos, training sessions, and more. We plan to have a focus on Wikidata, and are currently planning activities that may interest non-technical folks as well.

Stay tuned for more information.

Friday, October 19

Friday is our Culture Crawl, which includes tours and other activities at various cultural institutions in Columbus. More information will be available soon.

Friday evening will be our reception at the Thompson Library on the Ohio State University campus. Hors d'oeuvres will be served and drinks will be available for purchase.

Saturday, October 20

Saturday is the first day of our main conference consisting of presentations, workshops, panels, unconference sessions, lightning talks, and more from our community. Tracks will cover a wide array of topics, including but not limited to editing, education, academia, inclusion and diversity, harassment and safety, event organization, community building, technology and tools, and more.

The program is still in development. The placeholder table is provided below to give attendees and idea of what to expect, but is subject to change.
