SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ann Arbor Art + Feminism 2026
DESCRIPTION:Listen to a panel of University of Michigan faculty members talk about creating a feminist\, inclusive\, and more equitable internet\, then participate in a Wikipedia and Wikidata Edit-a-thon. We'll provide a hands-on workshop for beginners\, reference materials\, and lunch from Jerusalem Garden.\n\nWhat would a truly feminist internet look like? Artists and activists who identify as women\, non-binary\, trans\, queer\, Black\, Indigenous\, or people of color only make up a fraction of contributors and content subjects in Wikimedia. As generative AI plays a larger role on the internet\, it is more important than ever to diversify the content. Join us to learn how you can take action to address this imbalance by editing Wikipedia and Wikidata! \n\nThis is the first time Ann Arbor Art + Feminism will incorporate Wikidata as well as Wikipedia. Wikidata can be described as Wikipedia’s structured data counterpart\, designed as an open platform that can be read and edited by both humans and machines. Wikidata ensures that all Wikimedia projects — like Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons — can get their information from the same place. As a freely available information resource\, it also can be used to standardize and enrich other open databases and software. \n\nThis event is in partnership with Ann Arbor District Library\, the U-M Library\, and LSA Technology Services.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Art in the Arb: Make a Mini Glade
DESCRIPTION:Take home a mini glade! Come join us at Nichols Arboretum and make a model forest with dried herbaceous plants. Bring a dried bouquet from your own garden or play with natural materials we provide. \n\nJoin Arb Caretaker Jenna in an interactive workshop exploring landscape architecture\, design\, and imagined futures. Starting with a sketch walk\, participants will look at winter’s leftover plant material and sketch the architecture they see. They will then use these sketches to design the shape and texture of a mini-forest. Using foraged dried blooms and grasses from last summer\, the group will create a mini-forest glued onto foam board. \n\nNo prior art experience is required\; all levels are welcome.  All materials are provided. Bring your curiosity and love for the outdoors!\n\nArtist Bio:\nJenna James is a second-year landscape architecture student and Arboretum caretaker. She has been creating art since she was a teenager and uses these skills to communicate ideas and site analysis in her studies at the School of Environment and Sustainability. Her multi-media practice and appreciation of the genius of botany's unique textures and structural characteristics inspired this workshop that encourages others to create out of what is often tossed away. \n\nLocation:\nThis session takes place at the entrance to Nichols Arboretum located at 1610 Washington Heights.  Upon entering the Arb\, look for the James D. Reader Center\, a large white farmhouse. Follow the ramp or stairs to the main entrance with the green door.\n\nRegistration required: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/p/track/16054
