[OpenGLAM] Kiasma Museum in Helsinki holds first open knowledge event!

[Sarah Stierch]

Hi everyone,

It came across my radar today that Kiasma Museum in Helsinki is holding 
their first "open knowledge" event!

This is a Wikipedia edit-a-thon geared around the museums specialty: 
contemporary art. They're partnering with Wikimedia Finland and will be 
getting tours of the museum exhibitions and meetings with staff.

The event is a two day event, but I'm sure you can attend one day if 
need be - Feb. 1 & 2.  Read the details here:

We had the pleasure of meeting with staff from Kiasma during OKFest, 
specifically the OpenGLAM public event and at lunch - and I like to 
think the OKFest event was a catalyst for making this event happen. If I 
can ever provide any input or advice on hosting similar events at your 
institution, feel free to ping me off list.

-Sarah
