The August 2024 Wiknic NYC is a planned Wiknic, the "picnic that anyone can edit", to be held on the Saturday August 24, 2-7pm on Roosevelt Island.
Following up on this month's Wikimania in Poland, this Wiknic will have as guest of honor User:DerHexer, the 2024 Wikimedia Laureate of the Year, marking his triumphant North American tour!
Bring a picnic blanket and some potluck for the "picnic anyone can edit" if you like! We encourage you to bring your own favorite dishes to share, especially for those food cultural topics you would like to improve on Misplaced Pages.
We'll also do a portal thing for a bit with West Coast friends at the WikiLA ocean life edit-a-thon.
All attendees are subject to Wikimedia NYC's Code of Conduct, and don't forget your sunscreen!

- I've been meaning to get pics of non-Roosevelt Island buses on Roosevelt Island, which is why I regret that I'm still going to be stuck in Florida. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 02:08, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
